FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- A major crash in Fresno County has left three children in the hospital.

The California Highway Patrol says a car's driver did not heed a stop sign at the intersection of Dickenson and Barstow Avenues about 5:10 pm and pulled out in front of an SUV.

The three children were in the back seat of the car. It does not appear that they were wearing seatbelts, the CHP says.
