19-year-old hit and killed in Brevard County crash: FHP

A 19-year-old woman was killed after being struck on I-95 in Brevard County early Saturday morning, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

It happened just after midnight in the southbound lanes of I-95 near mile marker 188 after officials said a 2010 Lexus was accelerating before crashing into the back of a semi truck.

Following the crash, officials said the driver of the Lexus, a 19-year-old woman, exited the vehicle and was struck after a Ford F-250 collided with the rear of the Lexus.

According to investigators, the woman was then hit by another vehicle.

The woman died at the scene of the crash, according to officials.

A 16-year-old passenger in the Lexus was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The other drivers were not injured, investigators said.

The accident remains under investigation.
