CALHOUN, La. — Three children and two adults from an East Texas family were killed on their way to a Disney World vacation when their sport utility vehicle veered off the interstate and rolled over in northeast Louisiana, police said.

The car was driven by a 16-year-old who likely fell asleep at the wheel just before 11 p.m. Wednesday on Interstate 20 near Calhoun, state police spokesman Michael Reichardt said. The driver and two additional passengers suffered minor injuries.

Authorities identified the adults killed as Michael and Trudi Hardman of Terrell, Texas. The children killed were ages 4, 7 and 15. None of those killed wore seat belts but the driver did, officials said.
