According to Ocala Fire Rescue, crews responded to the scene on I-75 just north of mile marker 352 at 3:49 p.m.  A semi-truck carrying corn was reportedly heading south and experienced a tire failure, causing the vehicle to veer into oncoming traffic.

Emergency crews arrived to find the semi had overturned and come to rest on top of a Honda Civic that was traveling north.  Three other semi-trucks were involved in the wreck, with one of them hitting the back of the overturned semi.  The other two semis were involved in a rear-end collision.

In a Facebook post, police said they were notified of the incident on SW College Road at 5:39 a.m.  A preliminary investigation found that an SUV traveling eastbound struck a pedestrian in the roadway.  Police and rescue crews responded and found the victim, age 65, dead in the eastbound lanes.  The person’s identity was not immediately released as authorities worked to notify the family.

The driver of the SUV was not injured but was hospitalized as a precaution.
