Early Christmas morning car crash leaves driver dead, pedestrian seriously injured

Christmas Day sadly began with a car crash that left a driver dead and a pedestrian seriously injured.

Around 2 am on Christmas morning a 43-year-old Orlando man was driving northbound on Forsyth Road when he lost control of his Toyota Camry and struck the curb, collided with a sign and nearby internet box which caused the car to overturn, strike a utility pole and partially eject the driver.

A 21-year-old man was walking on a nearby sidewalk and was struck by the car and seriously injured. The driver of the car was pronounced deceased on scene. The crash remains under investigation.

Tragic accidents like this are terrible at any time of the year, but when they occur on a day like Christmas, the severity is unfortunately magnified.
