(Reuters) - The mother of three Philadelphia children killed when a carjacked SUV slammed into their sidewalk fruit stand last month has also died, hospital officials said on Friday.

Keisha Williams, 34, died on Thursday night at Temple University Hospital in Philadelphia from injuries she suffered from the crash on July 25.

Police said carjackers lost control of the vehicle and careened into the Williams' family as they were raising money for their church.

Keisha Williams' death prompted prosecutors on Friday to file additional murder charges against Jonathan Rosa, 19, and Cornelius Crawford, 23, who now face four counts of second-degree murder and conspiracy.

4. Yeah, this guy is

toast. Killing 3 kids and a woman while doing a carjacking. If he doesn't get the DP, he'll be in a cage forever. I'm hoping for the cage. He'll never breathe free air again.

7. Can you get the DP for second degree murder?

I'm not in favour of the DP but I do believe life in jail should be LIFE.

Rosa turned himself in with his mother and pastor by his side. The other guy was picked up later. It says they are expected to get life in prison. I doubt it as states don't seem to have the money to do that.
