Orlando, FL (May 7, 2021) - A woman who was killed in a crash on Thursday in Orlando has been identified by police. The accident happened around 10:00 a.m. on Lee Road.
According to officials, 50-year-old Stephanie Lynn Marshall was driving a 2014 Nissan Altima in the westbound lanes of Lee Road when her car was hit by a gold 2008 Chevrolet Impala. A passenger in the Impala was also killed in the accident. Police believe that the Impala was speeding in the eastbound lanes of Lee Road prior to the crash. As the Impala entered a curve, the driver lost control and the car went over the median before colliding with the westbound Altima. The Impala also struck two other cars before coming to rest. The Impala driver was seriously injured and was taken to a hospital for treatment.
There is no word on charges at this time. No further information is available.
We are saddened to hear of this tragic car accident in Orlando. Fatal accidents take place in Florida about once every three hours. It appears as though driver negligence caused this fatal accident to occur. In many deadly crashes, innocent victims are killed due to the negligence of another motorist. Police will continue to investigate the cause of the crash.
