Two surveyors from Volusia County were killed Friday in a hit-and-run crash when they were struck by a semi-truck as they walked along the shoulder of Interstate 95 in Brevard County, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
A 22-year-old Enterprise man and a 41-year-old Deltona man died in the crash, which happened about 9:50 a.m. at mile marker 172 southbound on Interstate 95, the FHP stated.
