PASCO COUNTY, Fla. — A teenage pedestrian and a motorcyclist were killed in an early Sunday morning crash in Pasco County, authorities said.
According to a Florida Highway Patrol report, the motorcycle driven by a 25-year-old New Port Richey man was traveling southbound on Little Road at about 12:15 a.m.
North of Embassy Boulevard, the 18-year-old Port Richey man attempted to walk across the roadway, the patrol report stated.
The teen entered the motorcyclist’s path and was struck, the report stated.
The teen and motorcyclist were taken to an area hospital, where they were both later pronounced dead.
A scammer tricked an 89-year-old, telling her that her grandson was hurt and that she needed to withdraw nearly $10,000 immediately. Luckily, Jennifer Sgro, a teller at Achieva Credit Union in Clearwater, stepped in when she recognized something was wrong.
