A tragic incident occurred in Osceola County on June 21 when an SUV carrying six individuals collided with a tractor-trailer and caught fire. The Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) reported that the accident took place on State Road 60, just before 4 p.m. Initially, a 2024 Hyundai Tucson with six occupants was traveling west of South Kenansville Road. Simultaneously, a 2011 semitruck driven by a 36-year-old man from Miami Gardens was heading eastbound on S.R. 60. The Tucson driver attempted to overtake multiple vehicles by moving into the eastbound lane.
