Fort Worth police say a speeding driver rear-ended a sedan on I-35W early Monday morning. Everyone in the sedan was killed in the fiery crash.

FORT WORTH, Texas - The Tarrant County Medical Examiner says it could take months to formally identify the victims of a deadly crash that killed five people earlier this week.

A mother, her three children and her boyfriend were killed in a crash with an alleged drunk driver on Monday, according to family members.

The medical examiner's office says at least four of the victims need to be specifically identified by DNA testing.

"Scientific testing for DNA human identification is a process utilized whenever the remains are not suitable for visual, fingerprint, or odontology (dental) identification methods," said the Tarrant County Medical Examiner's Office in a statement to FOX 4.

All DNA testing will be performed at the University of North Texas Health Science Center in Fort Worth.

The other two children have not been identified.

Amiyah Lashae Rose Fisher was the youngest victim in a crash that killed five people in Fort Worth on Monday. Police say a 19-year-old drunk driver was behind the wheel.

Police say Eduardo Gonzalez, 19, was driving a Camaro on I-35W at high speeds when he crashed into the car carrying the family, causing it to burst into flames.

Fort Worth police found alcoholic beverages inside the Camaro. Plus, investigators say the 19-year-old smelled like alcohol and had slurred speech. Results of a blood test are still pending.
