According to authorities, there was one fatality in last night’s three-vehicle crash on State Road 200. 

OCALA, FL – On Tuesday, October 12, just before 7 p.m., a red Hyundai SUV left the Red Lobster parking lot, located in the 3300 block of State Road 200.

As the Hyundai SUV crossed the lanes of traffic to make a left, it was struck by a silver Scion traveling westbound. The Scion T-boned the driver’s side of the SUV, which resulted in the Scion rotating counter-clockwise, and into the path of a silver Honda.
