Tragic Accident in Marion County Leaves Woman Dead
A devastating accident in Marion County, Florida, has left a woman dead and a man critically injured after their vehicles collided on Saturday. The Florida Highway Patrol reported that the incident took place on SW 110th Avenue, where a sedan turned directly into the path of an SUV, resulting in a tragic crash.
Details of the Accident
According to troopers, the collision caused the SUV to veer off the road and overturn, leading to the ejection of the 69-year-old female passenger. Tragically, she was pronounced dead at the scene by the Marion County Fire Rescue. The driver of the SUV, a 74-year-old man, is currently in critical condition following the accident.
Lack of Seatbelt Use
