POLK COUNTY, FL. – Two men were killed in a violent crash that happened on I-4 in Polk County Monday night.
According to Florida Highway Patrol, a car was traveling eastbound on I-4, east of Old Grade Road at a high rate of speed.

The car entered the westbound lanes and struck the right side of the van.
After the impact, both vehicles rotated to a stop in the westbound travel lanes of I-4 where the driver that lost control, was partially ejected from the vehicle, and his passenger, a 30-year-old man from Kissimmee was fully ejected.
