A 36-year-old Melbourne man was killed in a two-vehicle crash in Brevard County on Sunday afternoon, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Troopers said the fatal crash happened at State Road A1A and Seagrape Road around 5:36 p.m.
According to a crash report, a Dodge Ram 1500 pickup truck was traveling south on A1A, south of Seagrape Road. At the same time, a Hyundia Veloster was traveling north on A1A, south of Seagrape Road.
