A semi-truck crashed into a car that was slowed in a construction zone on Interstate 70 in Indiana, killing four children, and now police believe drugs factored into the accident.

A 2004 Kenworth semi pulling a box trailer was driving on the interstate in Wayne County before it attempted to merge left into the passing lane in a construction zone, police told WANE-TV. Officials said the truck “failed to slow down” before hitting a Chevrolet vehicle, pushing the car into another semi-truck.
