Troopers with the Florida Highway Patrol say that a Honda Accord collided with a Town and Country Van. The driver of the Honda, 21-year-old Kaitlyn Kane was ejected in the crash and died from her injuries. A passenger, 21-year-old Troy Livingston was also killed in the collision. The driver of the van and a passenger suffered serious injuries and were transported to Orange Park Medical Center.
