The accident happened on the E-79 road near the village of Dyakovo.
All were initially taken to the Emergency Room in the nearby town of Dupnitsa. Five, including two children, were later transferred to the "Pirogov" emergency hospital in Sofia.
A 1.5-year-old girl is listed with a head trauma, while her 3-year-old brother is in stable condition. The father, 27, has been treated for head injuries and released; the mother is listed with a pelvis fracture. The fifth person is a 22-year-old woman with concussion.
