Authorities respond to fatal crash in St. Lucie County

ST. LUCIE COUNTY, FL – According to WPTV News, a 33-year-old man was killed in a crash that took place in St. Lucie County on Saturday.

Authorities say the single-vehicle accident took place around 7:00 a.m. near the intersection of Orange Avenue and South Header Canal Road, just west of Florida’s Turnpike.

The driver involved was traveling north on Header Canal Road in a 2018 Dodge Journey SUV when he drove through a stop sign without stopping and through the intersection at Orange Avenue. The driver veered onto the grass shoulder and crashed into a guardrail, which caused the vehicle to flip up and over the canal.
