Middleburg, FL (November 1, 2019) - An 81-year-old woman died when she was struck by two vehicles in Middleburg on Friday, November 1st. The crash was reported around 5:00 a.m. on County Road 218 near Country Estates Road.
Troopers with the Florida Highway Patrol were called to the crash scene to investigate. According to reports, Louise Gonzalez was walking across CR 218 when she was hit by a Ford Ranger. The Ranger was traveling westbound at the time of the crash. After being struck by the Ranger, Gonzalez flew into the eastbound lanes, where she was struck a second time by a Honda Insight. Rescue workers pronounced Gonzalez dead at the scene. No one else was injured in the crash. It is unclear if the drivers of the two vehicles remained at the scene following the accident.
No further details are available at this time.

Pedestrian crashes must be thoroughly investigated by authorities who will seek to determine whether the driver or pedestrian was responsible for the crash. Police will look to see what measures could have been taken by the driver to avoid the accident and if the driver was otherwise negligent by failing to yield or by driving distracted, among other things.
