Hours after a woman was fatally injured in a head-on crash on County Road 218 early Saturday morning that the Florida Highway Patrol described as a hit-and-run, a man surrendered to troopers.
Troopers said a GMC Yukon was traveling west on CR-218 about a mile east of U.S. 301 about 12:20 a.m. when it crossed over the center line and collided with an eastbound Toyota Tacoma driven by a 23-year-old Middleburg woman. The victim was taken to Orange Park Medical Center, where she died. Her name has not been released.
