A suspected drunken driver rear-ended a car early Thursday in Orange County, killing two people, the Florida Highway Patrol said.

The crash was reported around 2:25 a.m. at Buck and Dean roads near State Road 417 and University Boulevard.Ellen Cleven heard the commotion from inside her house.

"I was in my bedroom. I heard two crashes," Cleven said. "I grabbed my cellphone and I was out through the garage in about a minutes or less."

In Cleven's front yard and wrapped around her tree was a 2013 Hyundai Sonata. The man behind the wheel was 21-year-old Kevin Hart.

Troopers said Hart was driving the car west on Buck Road when he rear-ended a 2002 Mitsubishi Mirage, which was stopped in a turn lane. Both cars traveled through the intersection from the impact of the wreck, troopers said.

The FHP said Hart, of Merritt Island, was arrested on two counts of vehicular homicide. More charges related to driving under the influence could be filed after the results of Hart's blood-alcohol test are completed.
