Pasoc County, FL (October 1, 2018) - A motorcyclist was critically hurt in a hit-and-run crash on SR 54 at Oak Grove Boulevard. Around 11:03 pm on Saturday, September 29th, authorities were called to the accident scene in reference to a vehicle vs. motorcycle collision.
When they arrived, Florida Highway Patrol troopers discovered Paul Lee Ross, 43, suffering from critical injuries. After an investigation, it was determined that Ross was traveling westbound on SR 54 on a 2001 motorcycle. A driver traveling east turned into the path of Ross's motorcycle. The motorcycle collided with the right side of the vehicle. Following the crash, the driver fled the scene.
The suspect vehicle is described as a dark grey Toyota Sedan driven by a white woman with blonde hair. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Florida Highway Patrol at 813-558-1800.
