Police say a 34-year-old driver was traveling westbound on West Hampton Avenue around 8 p.m. when they collided with an unoccupied parked vehicle.

The driver then struck a tree and another parked vehicle before coming to a stop. Police confirmed that the parked vehicle was legally parked.

The passengers, two 5-year-old children, were taken to a local hospital for treatment of serious injuries. The driver was also taken to a local hospital for non-life-threatening injuries and is currently in custody.

The investigation is ongoing, and charges are pending review by the Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office.
