A man was killed early Tuesday morning when he rear-ended a car and traveled into oncoming traffic on John Young Parkway in Osceola County, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The fatal crash happened around 6:30 a.m. near Ball Park Road.
Troopers said two vehicles were traveling north on John Young Parkway when one of them, a 2024 Mazda CX-30, slowed down for traffic. A 2016 Hyundai Veloster traveling behind the Mazda failed to slow down and crashed into the back of it before swerving into the southbound lanes.
The Hyundai went into the path of an oncoming 2020 Ford F-250, which struck the right side of the Hyundai, troopers said.
The Hyundai driver, whose name and age have not been released, was taken to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead, according to the FHP.
The Mazda driver, a 17-year-old Kissimmee girl, was not injured. The driver of the Ford F-250, a 62-year-old Orlando man, was taken to a hospital with minor injuries, a crash report stated.
Troopers said all southbound lanes and the inside northbound lane are blocked on John Young Parkway.
An investigation is ongoing.
