ORLANDO, FL : Baby boy dies days after crash on Florida Turnpike near Orlando on Monday, 3rd February, 2020

A 4-month-old boy has died days after the car he was riding in was involved in a crash near Orlando on Florida’s Turnpike, investigators said Monday.

Nolan Panette was in a car seat on Friday morning when the vehicle being driven by his grandfather was struck by another car, said Florida Highway Patrol Lt. Kim Montes.

Troopers immediately arrived on the scene and pulled the child from the car seat. They performed CPR on the boy until paramedics arrived and took him to the hospital.

Investigators said car driven by Frank Panetta, 69, slowed down because of traffic in front of his vehicle. A car driven by Lucie Alexandre, 32, failed to slow and hit Panetta’s car. Panetta, his wife, Suzana Panetta, 71, and Alexandre all suffered minor injuries in the crash.

The crash remains under investigation, Montes said.
