Two pedestrians from Palm Coast were killed just after midnight, early on Jan. 14, when a pickup truck, also driven by a Palm Coast resident, struck them near the intersection of U.S. 1 and State Road 100. Charges are pending.
A third pedestrian, who is a 48-year-old Bunnell man, was also struck in the crash and is in critical condition at the hospital, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The incident occurred as a 51-year-old Palm Coast man was driving a pickup truck north on U.S. 1. Three pedestrians were walking across U.S. 1: a 50-year-old Palm Coast woman, a 59-year-old Palm Coast woman, and the 48-year-old Bunnell man.
The pickup hit the three pedestrians and kept driving, before being located up the road, at the Terranova's Pizzeria parking lot. The two Palm Coast pedestrians were pronounced dead at the scene, the FHP reported.
