JACKSON COUNTY, Fla. (WTXL) - Florida Highway Patrol troopers are investigating an accident where a driver left the scene of the crash.

It happened at just after 10 a.m. Friday. Officers still have not identified the driver of a 2015 Kia that ran off the road on US Hwy 98 WB, west of SR-59 in Jefferson County.
