EDGEWATER, Fla. (AP) - A 63-year-old man and his 27-year-old son have died in a rollover crash that authorities say was caused by a separated tire.
Florida Highway Patrol spokeswoman Kim Montes said in a news release that Michael Bradford and his son Warren Bradford were in a Ford pickup truck on Interstate 95 on Thursday when the front left tire had a tread separation.
The report says Michael Bradford lost control of the vehicle, which ran off the road, struck a culvert and went airborne before overturning.
Montes says the truck's roof hit a tree.
Both men died at the scene. An investigation is continuing.
