Broward Sheriff’s Office (BSO) traffic homicide detectives are investigating a fatal single-vehicle crash which occurred Sunday morning at the 1000 block of W. Sample Rd. in Pompano Beach.
Just after 3 a.m. on May 3, Clifford Skidmore was traveling eastbound in a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado truck on W. Sample Rd. when his vehicle drifted off the roadway in a southeasterly direction.
The Silverado continued to drift, driving over the raised curb and through a grass swale, before striking a large traffic control signal pole.
Pompano Beach Fire Rescue responded and transported Skidmore to Broward Health North for injuries that were not life-threatening. The passenger, Corey Clayton, was pronounced deceased on scene.
The investigation is ongoing.
