Woman killed when car hits pole

Posted on 03 April 2015 by JLusk

A Jacksonville woman was killed early Friday morning when her car hit a pole in Deerfield Beach. The Broward Sheriff’s Office Traffic Homicide Unit is investigating the circumstances that led to the crash.

A preliminary investigation showed that Carrie Ann Laird, 37, was westbound on Southwest 10 street at a high rate of speed. A witness told investigators Laird may have been racing another vehicle when she lost control of her 2005 Nissan 350Z and veered off the roadway. There was no evidence indicating that the other vehicle made contact with the Nissan.

Laird lost control of the car, and it struck a pole. She was not wearing a seatbelt. Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue pronounced her dead at the scene.

Anyone with information about this crash can contact Detectives Carlos DeJesus at (954)321-4840 or call Broward Crime Stoppers, anonymously, at (954) 493-TIPS (8477) or online at browardcrimestoppers.org.
