An 84-year-old woman was killed and two others hospitalized after a multi-car crash Sunday, Sept. 21 west of Boca Raton.
According to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, the crash happened around 7:30 p.m. on Yamato Road near Lakeridge Boulevard. Marina Villalobos of Ridgewood, N.Y., was pronounced dead about an hour later.
PBSO said a Hyundai Sonata, driven by Miguel Ulloa, 63, was traveling eastbound on Yamato Road in the left turn lane at the intersection with Lakeridge Boulevard, just east of State Road 7. Villalobos was a passenger in the Sonata.
At the same time, a Toyota Corolla driven by Deborah Ann Strebel, 69, was traveling westbound on Yamato in the outside lane approaching the intersection with Lakeridge Boulevard.
When Ulloa turned left, the Corolla collided with the passenger side of the Sonata.
All three were transported to Delray Medical Center where Villalobos was pronounced dead. No charges have been filed. The investigation continues.
