A man from Brooksville was killed early Monday after a pedestrian crash on State Road 50 in Hernando County, according to authorities.
The collision happened just after midnight on June 22, 2026, on SR-50 west of Deltona Boulevard. Investigators said a sport utility vehicle was traveling westbound when it struck a pedestrian who was attempting to cross the highway.
Authorities identified the pedestrian as a 51-year-old Brooksville man. He suffered fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene. The SUV driver was identified as a 65-year-old man from Spring Hill.
Officials have not released additional details about why the pedestrian was in the roadway or whether any other factors contributed to the crash. No charges or citations were reported in the initial public information, and the investigation appears to be ongoing.
