Jacksonville, FL — Troopers with the Florida Highway Patrol are investigating a deadly crash in Fleming Island involving a semi-truck.
It happened on U.S. 17 after Harbor Island Drive. Southbound lanes were closed for several hours, but reopened around 11:45AM.
FHP says the driver of the vehicle who was hit, 50-year-old Maria Ocasio of Jacksonville, died. Troopers say the semi-truck continued south on U.S. 17, but was located and stopped just south of the crash scene.
The driver of that semi truck, 68-year-old Johnny Gratta of Baldwin, has now been arrested for leaving the scene of a crash resulting in a death, according to FHP.
