Sydney mother grieves after both young children killed when car strikes pram

Thursday, 18 June 2026, 06:35 · 1 min read

A mother in Cabramatta (a suburb in Sydney's south-west, Australia) has spoken of her anguish after both of her children — Katherine, five, and Harry, 14 months — were killed when an SUV struck their pram as she crossed a street with them shortly after the Wednesday school pick-up. Sok Ram, 33, told reporters at the scene: "I wish it hit me, not my baby and daughter," while the children's father, Vundy Tha, said the family forgave the driver and urged all motorists to drive safely. Bystanders performed CPR and a group of motorists physically tipped the car onto its side to free one of the children, but both died in hospital shortly after; a GoFundMe fundraiser for the family had raised more than $115,000 by Thursday afternoon.
