One adult and one child were uninjured in the crash.<\/p>\n<p>The SUV was being driven by Federico Acuna, 35, of Marshall. Acuna lost control of the GMC Envoy, which rolled several times before stopping on its top. Investigators say the SUV did not have child safety seats and that nine of the children were ejected from the vehicle. Because the children were not restrained, the driver, who lost two daughters, two nieces and a nephew in the wreck, could be charged with five counts of criminal negligent homicide.<\/p>\n<p>DPS identified the children who died as: Rosvaelia Jaimes, 13; Omar Jaimes, 7; Saideth Acuna6; Ulisa Acuna, 3 and Urit Jaimes, 2.
