BAKER COUNTY, Fla. – One person has died, and another is in critical condition Friday following a collision with a truck and a pickup truck on U.S. 90 at Warden Circle in Baker County.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol, a 32-year-old West Palm Beach woman was heading east when she swerved into a semitruck’s lane just before 2 p.m. This caused her vehicle to spin out and crash head-on into the semi, redirecting her car into a pickup truck.
