A 6-year-old boy is the fourth victim to die from his injuries when a crowd of people was struck by a car after a Christmas concert outside a church in Redondo Beach, Calif., coroner’s officials said Friday.

Samuel Gaza, who had suffered head trauma and a bruised lung, died overnight at Harbor UCLA Medical Center, said Lt. David Smith of the Los Angeles County coroner’s office.

His mother, Martha Gaza, 36, of Torrance, Calif., was also killed in Wednesday night’s crash outside St. James Catholic Church.

Police say Torrance residents Mary Ann Wilson, 81, and Saeko Matsumura, 87, were also killed. Eight others, including four children, were hurt.
