Nine people, including two pregnant women had to be rushed to the hospital after a multi-vehicle crash in Northwest Miami-Dade.

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue said approximately 10 vehicles were involved in the crash, which took place at the intersection of Northwest 151st Street and Seventh Avenue, at around 3:45 p.m.
Anna Loriston, the mother of the two pregnant women, rushed to the scene after she heard what happened.
“Both have bellies — big bellies,” said Anna Loriston of her daughters.
According to one witness who went to help, the incident began as a street race. “I heard an unmuffled car, apparently, racing,” Michael Molnar said.
Molnar is a former army medic who came to the assistance of a woman before paramedics could arrive. “She was thrown from the driver’s side or the passenger’s side of the front seat,” he said.
According to Miami-Dade Fire Rescue, two of the victims were taken to the hospital in serious condition while the rest were taken in good condition. All are expected to be OK.
