Three killed in head-on crash in Dade City

The force of the impact sent both vehicles spinning, with the Buick coming to rest in the northbound lanes of U.S. 301 and the Ford Explorer ending up on the east shoulder. 
Three people died Tuesday in a head-on collision in Dade City, Florida before noon on U.S. 301.
