FRESNO COUNTY, Calif. (KFSN) -- The 47-year-old that was killed in a multi-car crash in Fresno County on Monday afternoon has been identified.

Officials say Belinda Chacon was killed on Highway 41 and Elkhorn around 12:45 p.m. when a Ford F-450 rear-ended a stopped Toyota.

The force of the crash caused the Toyota to hit a Chevy, which was then pushed into a big rig trailer.

Five other people were hurt, including a child about 3 years old who was taken to the hospital.

Officials say the car seat was properly installed and could be what saved the child's life.
