PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- A man has been sentenced 17 to 34 years in prison for a crash that killed a mom and three of her sons on Roosevelt Boulevard back in 2013.

Police say Akhmedov was racing Ahmen Holloman on the Boulevard when he hit a family of five crossing the street.

Holloman, 32, was charged with four counts of vehicular homicide and sentenced five to 10 years in prison.
