Description of Incident

Skip

Broward Sheriff’s Office Traffic Homicide Unit detectives are investigating a fatal crash that occurred in Oakland Park on Wednesday night.

At approximately 6:35 p.m. on July 29, BSO deputies and Oakland Park Fire Rescue responded to reports of a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of Northwest 44th Street and Northwest 31st Avenue in Oakland Park. According to investigators, the driver of a 2012 BMW 640i, Milton Perez, was traveling southbound on Northwest 31st Avenue approaching Northwest 44th Street. At that time, a 2014 Honda Civic was making a left turn from Northwest 31st Avenue onto Northwest 44th Street. That’s when the BMW struck the Civic.

The impact caused the Civic to rotate counterclockwise. As the vehicle rotated, the adult female driver was ejected from the passenger side window and came to rest next to the vehicle. Paramedics with OPFR pronounced the adult female deceased on scene.

The other driver, Perez, was transported to an area hospital with injuries not expected to be life-threatening.

The investigation is ongoing.
