Three adults and two children died after their car was swept into a stream swollen by heavy rains as they were trying to traverse a low-water crossing area Saturday in southern Illinois, according to Marion County Coroner Troy Cannon.
The bodies were recovered several hundred feet downstream, according to Cannon.
