  • Deputies: Alejandra Gomez Matta killed after head-on crash
  • Other driver only suffered minor injuries

Alejandra Gomez Matta, 38, was driving a 2009 four-door Acura westbound in the eastbound lanes on Colonial Drive at around 9:50 p.m., troopers said.

That's when she struck 52-year-old Shawn Webb's 2004 Ford SUV head-on, FHP said. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Troopers don't yet know whether the Lake Wales woman was wearing a seat belt or whether alcohol was involved.

Webb, from Orlando, suffered minor injuries and was wearing a seat belt, FHP said.
