A Branford man was killed in a single-vehicle crash in McAlpin Saturday morning. Randy K. Dees, 19, was ejected from a 1987 Toyota pickup he was riding in when it overturned on 89th Road sometime before 7 a.m., The Florida Highway Patrol reported. Dees was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver, Anthony W. Collins, 21, of O’Brien, suffered minor injuries, and was treated at Shands Live Oak.
The pickup was headed south on 89th Road when it traveled partially onto the west shoulder, causing it to rotate counterclockwise and cross the roadway, according to FHP. The truck then overturned, ejecting Dees. The vehicle came to rest on its left side. Neither man was wearing a seatbelt, FHP said.
The exact time of the crash is unknown. Collins reportedly alerted a nearby homeowner of the accident at about 6:45 a.m.
Charges are pending, according to FHP reports.
FHP released the names of those involved in the crash at 9:27 a.m. Sunday.
