SHALER TOWNSHIP, Pa. (KDKA) - A woman has been charged in a wrong-way crash on Route 28 that injured eight children in her minivan and two adults in another car.

Shaler police said 31-year-old Fato Muya got onto Route 28 the wrong way last week and crashed head-on into a Ford Taurus between Millvale and Etna. 

Of the eight children ages 1 to 11 in Muya's minivan, at least four weren't wearing seatbelts, police said. Everyone was taken to the hospital with minor injuries.
