MADISON COUNTY, FL — A woman has died and a driver is critically hurt after a crash involving a semi on Interstate 10 in Madison County.
A report from the Florida Highway Patrol says the two victims were driving westbound in a sedan on the interstate and drove up behind the semi. Around MM 262 and 263 in Madison County, FHP says the sedan went onto the median, re-entered the road, and crashed into the back of the semi's trailer.
The female passenger was pronounced dead on scene.
FHP says the driver of the sedan had critical injuries and was transported to Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare by helicopter. The semi driver was not hurt.
The helicopter's arrival shut down traffic on both sides of the interstate for a time. The FHP says the eastbound side is now back open, and drivers on the westbound side are being redirected around the crash through a nearby truck scale house.
This is a developing story.
