The DeBary community is mourning after a business owner was killed in a hit-and-run crash on her way home from work last week.
DEBARY, Fla. - The DeBary community is mourning after a business owner was killed in a hit-and-run crash on her way home from work last week.
Susie Trimble owned Susie’s Cool Beans Nursery, located off U.S. Highway 17-92, with her daughter Marina.
"She was my beach partner and my best friend so it’s been hard," Marina said to FOX 35 News.
The Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) is looking for a red passenger vehicle, possibly a Hyundai, with damage on the driver’s side and black transfer paint.
FHP Lt. Kim Montes said Burgner was an innocent victim, simply at the wrong place at the wrong time.
