No survivors in horror head-on crash

THREE people, including a child, have been killed in a horror two car crash in Western Australia.

The awful accident happened near Breton Bay, around 125km north of Perth, just after 7am on Thursday.

Police say two cars collided head-on while travelling along Indian Ocean Drive, which is prone to fatalities.

The impact of the collision was so great, there were no survivors.

A woman and a child travelling in one of the cars was killed instantly, as was the driver of the other vehicle.

A fleet of emergency service personnel, including more than a dozen firefighters and police, attended the scene.

Crews worked to try and bring the occupants back to life but, despite their desperate efforts, they could not be saved.
