David Coffin, a 55-year-old DeLand man, suffered serious injuries yesterday morning when he was walking his bicycle and was suddenly struck by a vehicle. He was struck around 6:45 a.m. in the morning.
At the time of the accident, Coffin was walking east in the westbound lane of Euclid Avenue. 22-year-old Deziyer Swint hit him with his 2013 Chevy. The impact was forceful enough to throw Coffin into the grass. Swint was not injured.
Coffin was immediately taken to Central Florida Regional Hospital for his injuries.
