A man has been charged with causing death by careless driving after a four-year-old girl died in a crash in Birmingham.

Three other people suffered injuries which were not serious.
Javonnie Tavener, 23, has been charged with causing death by careless driving, causing death whilst driving uninsured and two counts of causing serious injury by careless driving, police said.
