Four people have been killed and five people seriously injured after a minivan rolled off a road and crashed into a tree in northern Victoria.

Police say nine people were in the vehicle when the driver lost control on Monday afternoon. Three children have been airlifted to hospital.

The crash on Chapel Road in Muckatah – about 10 kilometres south of Cobram – about 5pm will be investigated by major collision detectives.

The ages of the four dead people are not yet known. The remaining five others were all seriously injured.

Three of those injured are children and have been airlifted to hospital, while the other two – the driver and a passenger – were taken to hospital by road ambulance.

Anyone who witnessed the crash, has CCTV or dashcam footage, or anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report online.

The crash was the second fatal incident on Victorian roads on Monday. At 7am, a 32-year-old man died after his car crashed into a tree in the Wimmera town of Kaniva, in Victoria’s far north-west.

Victoria’s road toll for 2025 now stands at 279, the same as at this time last year.
