A one-year-old girl is fighting for her life and five others were injured in a head-on crash in Melbourne’s west.
Two cars collided on Station Road near Tulloch Street at Deer Park about 12.20am on Friday.
Six people from inside one of the vehicles — three adults and three young children — were taken to hospital.
The one-year-old girl suffered life-threatening injuries, while a 10-year-old girl and a 20-month-old baby girl are being treated in hospital for non-life-threatening injuries.
The three adults in the car — a 22-year-old woman, a 25-year-old woman and a 27-year-old man — all sustained minor injuries.
The driver of the second vehicle involved in the collision, a 22-year-old man from Niddrie in Melbourne’s north-west, was not injured in the crash.
He was arrested at the scene, and police said they would interview him in relation to dangerous driving causing serious injury.
