Bryceville, FL (July 31, 2020) – Early this morning, one person was killed in a fatal collision that took place near an intersection in Bryceville.

The Florida Highway Patrol confirmed that the crash took place on Brandy Branch Road (CR-121) around the area of Horseshoe Circle. It is believed that at least two vehicles collided with one another at the scene, though police have not yet said what caused them to collide.

Paramedics and numerous other responders were present at the scene of the accident. One person was tragically pronounced dead at the scene of the accident. It is not yet known if any victims were injured.

The area was completely closed at the scene of the accident due to the severity of the accident. Congestion built in the area for several hours, causing delays.
