Orlando, FL (May 31, 2021) – On Saturday night, May 29, a fatal accident occurred on a highway in Orlando.
According to Florida Highway Patrol officials, the accident took place on Orange Blossom Trail at the intersection with Doss Avenue. A Ford pickup truck was traveling south when the driver started to make a left turn at the intersection, which caused it to strike the front of an Acura.
The Acura was struck so forcefully that it went off the side of the road and ran into a tree. Three 20-year-olds were injured and taken to the hospital for treatment of injuries. One of the men involved in the accident died after being taken to the hospital.
According to officials, the driver of the pickup truck fled the scene of the collision after it occurred. Police are still looking for the driver.
