WINTER HAVEN, Fla. — An elderly woman was killed Friday afternoon after a front-end loader reversed into her car in Polk County, Florida Highway Patrol says.
The 77-year-old woman was stopped behind the truck before it began going into reverse near 2nd Str. southwest at Ave. C southwest in Winter Haven, according to FHP.
Troopers say the front-end loader would back over the woman's sedan, crushing it. She would end up dying from her injuries at the scene of the crash.
