According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the driver of a car went off the road and hit a tree around 2:30 a.m. A 26-year-old man from Fort Myers and a 24-year-old man from Jacksonville were killed. FHP said the car was heading east at a high rate of speed when it failed to make it around a curve in the road. They say the car spun around and the right side of the car hit a tree. Troopers say the car broke apart with the front of the car coming to rest upside-down against a tree, and the back of the car stopping in the eastbound lanes of Coconut Road.
