Inverness, FL (July 23, 2018) – An 18-year-old woman from Lecanto lost her life in a serious Inverness accident when she lost control of her vehicle and collided with another vehicle, then striking a pedestrian handrail.
The Florida Highway Patrol responded to the accident around 3:48 p.m. Friday and found Rose Marie Lillian Plante, who was driving her 2004 Chevy at the time. She lost control of her vehicle on South Brisson Terrace.
Plante’s vehicle crossed the median and struck the right rear of a Nissan pickup truck being driven by Jayson Harbison. Plante’s car rotated and collided with the pedestrian handrail. Plante then died at the scene of the accident.
