SARASOTA, FL – One person sustained minor injuries, and an 81-year-old man was left dead following a two-vehicle wreck Thursday.
According to My SunCoast, this collision occurred when the 81-year-old man driving a sedan on westbound Clark Road (also known as State Road 72) failed to yield to oncoming traffic when turning left and collided with a truck hauling a trailer.
Sarasota first responders said the driver of the truck swerved to avoid hitting the sedan, but the sedan initiated contact with the right side of the truck.
