West Australian children killed in Denmark car crash A South West community has been left "hollow" after the tragic loss of three young children on Tuesday while holidaying overseas. A West Australian woman and her baby survived a high-speed car crash in Denmark, but her nine-year-old daughter and two sons, aged three and 11 died in the accident. They were killed when the car was t-boned by another vehicle travelling in the opposite direction. Her husband was not in the car and was with his father-in-law when the crash occurred close to the town of Lendum, near Sindal, just before 10am (WST) on Tuesday. The name of the family involved has not been confirmed by authorities but Shire of Manjimup president Wade DeCampo said the town was devastated as the news filtered through town since Wednesday morning. "It's inconceivable to any of us, we couldn't even begin to imagine the pain they [the mother and father] must be going through," he said. To lose one child is so hard but to lose three is inconceivable. Our heartfelt sympathies go out to the family. He said Pemberton was a place where "everyone knows everyone" and the family were well known. Mr DeCampo said the impact would be felt throughout the area including Manjimup where the mother works. "The community will be hollow; three years of school classes will have one less member in each of them," he said. Mr DeCampo said the family had lived in Pemberton for at least 10 years. A Danish police spokesman said the weather was clear and sunny when the fatal crash happened but the woman probably did not see the other car as she turned. "The mother was very shocked, but was not unconscious," the spokesman said.
