A couple from Summit County was killed in a car accident in Florida.

Authorities and local media report three people, including two from Twinsburg died after a crash on Thursday in southwest Florida.

The Floida Highway Patrol says 67 year-old Diane Kiffner was traveling northbound on I-75 in Manatee County when a tow truck came into her lane and sideswiped her, causing her car to spin and ultimately overturn.

Two passengers, 68-year old Leonard May and 65 year-old Lana May both from Twinsburg, died at the scene according to investigators. Kiffner later died at  the hospital.

Authorities say the driver of the tow truck sustained only minor injuries.
