JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A 43-year-old man was killed and three other people were injured in a wrong-way crash Monday night on Cecil Commerce Center Parkway, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

A car was driving north in the southbound lanes of Cecil Commerce Parkway just after 7 p.m. when it hit a pick-up truck head-on near I-10, according to the report.

The impact sent the pick-up spinning, and an SUV headed south behind the truck struck the driver’s side of the truck.

The 30-year-old man driving the pick-up truck suffered critical injuries. He was wearing a seat belt, according to FHP.

The 43-year-old man from Rockledge, Florida, who was driving the car that had been going the wrong way died in the crash. He was not wearing a seat belt, the report said.

The 45-year-old woman from Orange Park who was driving the SUV suffered serious injuries, and her passenger, a 39-year-old woman from Arkansas, had minor injuries, FHP said. Both were wearing seat belts.
