The PCSO Traffic Homicide Investigations Unit is investigating a single‑vehicle crash involving a semi‑truck that resulted in the death of the driver. The crash occurred at approximately 3:05 p.m. on Monday, March 23, 2026, on Deen Still Road in Lake Alfred.
A blue 2002 Freightliner semi‑truck with a dump trailer was traveling eastbound on Deen Still Road and appeared to be going too fast to safely navigate the right curve. The truck exited the roadway on the north side and entered the steep shoulder. The driver was ejected, and the semi rolled onto its side, landing on him.
When first responders arrived, they were initially unable to locate the driver. A heavy wrecker was used to lift the semi‑truck, where the driver was found underneath, deceased.
Next of kin have not yet been located. The investigation remains ongoing.
