Fiery Florida crash leaves 1 teen dead, 3 injured; 17-year-old charged
SUMTER COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) — One teenager is dead, three more are injured, and one is facing felony charges after a fiery crash in Sumter County, the Florida Highway Patrol said. On Monday afternoon, a Dodge Charger was traveling south on I-75 'recklessly and at a high rate of speed.' The driver was a 17-year-old boy from Inverness, and there were four boys in the car with him, ages 13, 15, 16 and 17. FHP said the driver was attempting to overtake slower traffic, swerved to avoid a collision, and went off the road. The Dodge struck a tree on the side of the highway and erupted in flames, after which the driver got out of the car, removed the license plate, and fled on foot. Troopers and Sumter County Sheriff's deputies tracked him to a chicken coop on a nearby property and took him into custody. All four passengers and the driver suffered injuries in the crash and were taken to local hospitals, where one, a 16-year-old, later died. The driver and two other passengers suffered minor injuries, and the fifth passenger suffered serious injuries, FHP said. The teen driver has been charged with multiple felonies, including vehicular homicide and leaving the scene of a crash involving death. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
