A 60-year-old Daytona Beach woman died Jan. 20 after she was injured in a car crash on Palm Coast Parkway about 300 feet east of Florida Park Drive.
Beverly Ann Campbell was driving a blue 2003 Dodge Caravan east on Palm Coast Parkway that morning when she struck a deer, and stopped in the lane of travel and got out of the van, according to a Flagler County Sheriff's Office crash report.
A 2004 Honda Civic driven by Palm Coast resident Frank Mannarino, 79, then struck her van from behind, and knocked her to the ground.
Campbell had "possible broken ribs and a broken arm on her right side," and was taken to Florida Hospital Flagler, according to the report. Her injuries were not considered life-threatening at the time of the crash. Crash victims whose injuries are considered life-threatening are generally taken to Halifax Health, which has a trauma unit.
Mannarino had injuries to his knees and chest pain from the airbag deployment, and was also taken to Florida Hospital Flagler, according to the crash report.
Fire rescue personnel who arrived at the scene of the crash noted that Campbell's headlights were not on, although the van was still running. Mannarino said they had not been on when the crash happened. The crash report states that it was still dark out.
City of Palm Coast staff removed the deer from the road. Both vehicles had to be towed from the scene.
