A 40-year-old woman from Centennial, Colorado is dead after a fatal crash at 3:38 a.m on Saturday in Osceola County, the Florida Highway Patrol said.

A 20-year-old woman from Kissimmee was traveling westbound on east Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway approaching Simpson Road in the inside lane in a 2021 Honda Civic, FHP said.

The 40-year-old woman was walking in a northerly direction and entered the westbound lane of east Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway, FHP said. The woman was not in a marked crosswalk and entered the direct path of the Honda Civic.

As a result, the front of the Honda Civic struck the pedestrian, FHP said. The driver was not injured and remained on-scene. The 40-year-old woman was transported to Osceola Regional Hospital and was later pronounced dead.

This crash remains under investigation.
