A teenager getting a driving lesson from a parent struck three girls who were playing in a driveway in Ashburn, Va., Thursday afternoon, said the Virginia's Loudoun County Sheriff's Office.

The 15-year-old driver apparently accelerated by accident while turning in a cul-de-sac and jumped a curb on Morven Woods Court before striking the children, authorities said.

The youngest victim, 7, was flown to Inova Fairfax Hospital with life-threatening injuries. She is now in stable condition.

An 8-year-old and a 10-year-old were taken to another local hospital with less severe injuries.
