A 14-year-old girl has died and two others have been injured after being hit by a car on their way to school in Witney, Oxfordshire.
The crash, which also injured a fourth male pedestrian, happened just after 8am in Curbridge Road.
The 18-year-old driver of the Citroen has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.
Those hit were taken to John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford, where the girl was pronounced dead.
An air ambulance has been scrambled to the scene.
A Thames Valley Police spokeswoman said the road is likely to be shut in both directions for some time as inquiries continue.
Speaking at the scene, Inspector Paul Winks told the Oxford Mail: "It appears the Citroen Saxo has mounted the pavement, hit the male first and he is seriously injured.
"It has then struck either two or three of the girls.
"This is a truly horrific incident and the driver has been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and will be interviewed by police.
"Special family liaison officers will be talking to the family of the schoolgirl who was killed as a result of this incident.
"I would appeal to anybody who has any information or witnessed this collision to call the police on 101."
