An alleged drunk driver has been charged with multiple offenses including manslaughter after a SUV struck seven children on a Sydney sidewalk, killing four and seriously injuring a fifth.

Antony, 13, Angelina, 12 and Sienna, 9, were killed on Saturday and their 10-year-old brother, who was injured in the incident, is in hospital in a serious but stable condition.

Their father’s cousin had lost an 11-year-old child named Veronique Sakr in the tragedy and another two girls, aged 10 and 13, suffered minor injuries, authorities said.

On Sunday, the father of the three children, Danny Abdallah spoke to reporters saying: “I don’t know what to say. I’m numb.”

“All I want to say is: please, drivers, be careful. These kids were just walking innocently, enjoying each other’s company… and this morning I woke up and I have lost three kids,” he added.
