A GoFundMe launched for Vivek Talwar, his wife, Kiran Bhat Talwar, and their four children, of Cresskill, says they were on a road trip when they were involved in a crash on Friday morning, Aug. 23, outside Charleston, SC.
Vivek, Kiran, and one child remain hospitalized with life-threatening injuries, while three of their children were released from the hospital but required assistive devices to move, reads the campaign launched by Tuisha Desai.
A post from Colleton County Fire-Rescue says only that a family from New Jersey was injured in the crash, but does not identify them by name. None of the six family members were wearing seatbelts. A spokesperson from the CCFR declined to identify the victims when Daily Voice inquired.
According to CCFR, the family’s southbound Toyota Sienna minivan left Interstate 95 and drove behind a guard rail before plummeting over an embankment. The minivan crashed head-on to Bells Highway below the interstate before overturning.
A female child and an adult male suffered critical, life-threatening injuries and an adult female suffered serious injuries, the department said. The three other male children received multiple non-life threatening injuries.
