PASCO COUNTY, Fla. — A 61-year-old Spring Hill woman died late Friday night after a crash in Pasco County, according to Florida Highway Patrol (FHP).

Around 11:30 p.m., troopers said the woman was driving a Kia Soul northbound on Drayton Street. She attempted a left turn onto County Line Road and entered the path of an eastbound Ford E350 van driven by a 40-year-old Brooksville man.

The van struck the Kia and the woman was taken to a local hospital, where she later died from her injuries, according to a news release.
