14 children dead.Pedro Mendez Perez a 38 yr. old trucker is now aprehended. He is in Barahona Jail for his own protection. Neyba town people want to lynch him. Another person in the truck cabin with him, Neris Segura, is in for questioning. He claims the trucker did not mean to run over the children. But surviving children say he stopped at the waving signs by the children, then purposely aimed at them and rushed over the crowd. There are still 20 others hurt in hospitals being attended for trauma wounds. One lady, the sister in law of Senator Francisco jimenez died in the scene from shock and a heart attack. The truck was burned by the enraged townpeople.
