The 13-year-old is in a critical condition in the Royal Adelaide Hospital.
The 11-year-old is in a serious but stable condition in the Women’s and Children’s Hospital.

They want anyone who witnessed the accident, saw the car beforehand or a Red Holden Commodore that stopped at the scene, to contact them.
