ORANGE COUNTY, Florida — The Florida Highway Patrol reported that two pedestrians are in critical condition after being struck near the intersection of State Road 436 and Century 21 Boulevard in east Orange County, Florida.

19-year-old Iesha Blake of Titusville, Florida, was driving a 1999 Ford 4-Door southbound on State Road 436 just after 6:30 p.m. on Thursday.
