A fatal crash occurred just before 5:30 a.m. Sunday at the intersection of East International Speedway Boulevard (US-92) and North Kepler Road in DeLand, according to WKMG News 6 ClickOrlando and FOX 35 Orlando.

The crash involved two vehicles—a 2000 GMC Sierra driven by an 18-year-old woman and a 2025 Volkswagen Atlas driven by a 44-year-old man—and a pedestrian who was in the road. Both drivers remained at the scene and were not injured, as reported by the Florida Highway Patrol.
