Authorities said a crash at State Road 44 and the I-95 ramps in New Smyrna Beach followed a pursuit involving a gray Ford F-150 on Saturday, May 30. The collision reportedly involved that truck, another Ford F-150, and a GMC Yukon.
Local reports indicate the incident began with a separate property damage hit and run at a travel park in New Smyrna Beach. Investigators said the suspect vehicle later drove away from troopers, traveling south on Old Mission Road, west on SR 442, and then north on I-95 before exiting at SR 44.
At the SR 44 intersection near the interstate ramps, the fleeing truck allegedly ran a red light and hit the other Ford F-150, then also struck the GMC Yukon. Reports said the Yukon was carrying two young children. Authorities said no injuries were reported to the occupants of the other vehicles, although all three vehicles were described as heavily damaged or totaled.
Officials have not indicated any injuries to those occupants, and no additional victim identities were released in the public reporting reviewed here. The events leading up to the crash, including the pursuit and the earlier reported hit and run, remain part of the law enforcement investigation.
