Daytona Beach, FL - Third Person Dies from Injuries in South Beach Street Crash

By: FL Accident News Blog as Blog Post

Daytona Beach, FL (September 13, 2018) - A third person died from injuries suffered in a crash that originally happened on Tuesday, September 4th.  On Monday, September 10th, authorities announced that 25 year old Marquise Jenkins passed away at Halifax Hospital.  Jenkins was a passenger in a vehicle driven by 23 year old Alex Thomas. Thomas was speeding when he lost control of his vehicle and went airborne, crashing into a tree.

Thomas died at the scene while another passenger, Danquelle Nash, passed away on September 6th. Florida Highway Patrol responded to the scene of the accident.  At this time, the crash is still under investigation.

We are saddened to hear of this fatal and tragic accident.  At this time, our thoughts are with the family and friends of Marquise Jenkins.

In Florida, a fatal crash takes place approximately every 3 hours.  Fatal crashes usually involve some form of driver error, whether it be impairment, drowsiness, distraction, or reckless driving.  In this case, it appears as though speeding ultimately caused the fatal collision which cost the lives of the driver and the two passengers.
