The Florida Highway Patrol is currently investigating a vehicle crash that occurred at approximately 7:21 a.m. on Thursday, December 5, 2019.
The crash occurred as 60 year-old John Williams of Tampa was traveling southbound in a 2016 Toyota on I-275 near milemarker 24. Williams slowed due to traffic ahead and was struck from behind by a 2011 Nissan Armada. The Armada was operated by 32 year-old Robert Kuzdale of Lutz.
