A father and his four children are all in critical condition after a crash this morning on Hixson Pike, officials say
About 8 a.m., Philip Boring, 36, was driving with his four children — ages 8, 7, 5 and 4 — when he was hit by another driver who ran a red light, according to Chattanooga police spokeswoman Sgt. Jerri Weary.
Boring’s 5-year-old daughter was the most seriously injured, Weary said, but he and his three sons also are listed in critical condition.
The driver of the other vehicle, 23-year-old Burton Webb, was taken to the hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries, she said.
The crash is still under investigation but charges are pending, Weary said.

What horrible news. I have known Phillips father every since we went to Normal Park together in the 50s. The children's mother passed away a few years ago and they were helping Phillip raise the kids. Our prayers and thoughts are with the family.
And they keep telling us guns are dangerous... God Bless this family. I hope they all make a quick recovery.
