From the Florida Highway Patrol
Troopers from the Florida Highway Patrol responded to a two-vehicle collision last night in Pasco County that resulted in the death of a driver.
According to the FHP report, at approximately 7:05 pm, a Kia Sorento, driven by a 68-year-old Deer Lodge, Tennessee man, was traveling westbound on Regency Park Boulevard.
At the same time, a 55-year-old Hudson man was driving a Hummer H2 northbound on US-19.
At the intersection of the two roadways, the first vehicle turned right onto US-19 and into the path of the second vehicle. It collided with the second vehicle, which then rotated off the highway and overturned.
As it overturned, the driver was ejected from the vehicle and suffered fatal injuries at the scene of the crash.
The driver of the first vehicle, and his passenger, a 56-year-old Homosassa man, were not injured during the incident.
The FHP did not release the names of the drivers or passengers involved in the collision.
