A head-on collision on State Road 60 Tuesday morning left one Lakeland woman dead and sent two to Tampa General Hospital.

Florida Highway Patrol personnel at the scene said witnesses saw Sarah Y. Dobson, 77, attempt to change lanes while traveling westbound on SR-60 and lose control, traveling across the median and then colliding with a 2018 Chevrolet Cruze traveling eastbound. Dobson, who was driving a 2009 Nissan Sentra, died at the scene.

Sabrina Rae Eldridge, 24, was taken to the hospital with serious injuries and a child in the back seat, who was secured in a car seat, was unharmed.

Troopers blocked off a portion of SR-60 at the Turkey Creek Road intersection.
