Baby girl killed, Kimberly Kinggard, 40, critically injured, Jesus G. Vela, 65, seriously injured, both taken to hospital, after a car and pickup collide on County Road 42 near Paisley.

A fatal Lake County crash on County Road 42 killed a baby girl and injured two other people, according to Florida Highway Patrol.

The FHP police report said the child — less than a year old — was a passenger in a 1994 Toyota Tacoma driven by Kimberly Kinggard, 40, of DeLand.

Troopers said Kinggard was driving westbound on County Road 42 around 7:08 p.m. Saturday, when the car swerved to the right onto the paved shoulder.

FHP said Kinggard over-corrected her steering and rotated counter-clockwise into the eastbound lanes of CR 42, where the front of the Toyota hit the right side of a 2001 Chevy pickup driven by Jesus G. Vela, 65, of Eustis.

The baby girl, later identified as Cheyanne Kinggard, 6-months old, was pronounced dead at Florida Hospital DeLand, while the infant’s name was not released, pending notification of her family. Kinggard was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center in critical condition. Vela was transported to Florida Hospital DeLand in serious condition.

FHP said alcohol was not a factor for Vela, but the results are still pending for Kinggard. FHP said the crash remains under investigation.
