## Sunday evening, north Fort Worth
Around 7 p.m., a Chevy Camaro lost control while speeding on Heritage Trace Parkway. Police say the driver never got it back.
## Through the fence
The car plowed through a wooden fence, struck a concrete pillar, then bounced back onto the road before finally stopping.
## Three kids in the pool
A 2-year-old girl and her 5-year-old twin brothers were swimming just past that fence. Video shows one child walking by moments before impact.
## Concrete missed them
Chunks of the divider post and large rocks flew into the yard. None of the three children were hurt.
## A councilman shows up
District 4's Charlie Lauersdorf visited the family and said the fence damage matters far less than the speeding behind it.
