Driver in fatal crash being checked for drugs, alcohol — report

Police have reportedly taken a sample of blood from the man who was driving the vehicle that collided with a van carrying a family earlier today, killing a 1-year-old and leaving his father and brother fighting for their lives.

Investigators believe the driver swerved suddenly into the path of a car carrying the Domnovitch family on Route 40 in the Negev desert, Channel 12 reports.

Police will check the blood for traces of drugs or alcohol as they probe why the driver swerved, the station reports.
