A Florida deputy is currently fighting for his life after being critically injured in a tragic accident that resulted in the loss of two of his colleagues. The incident occurred on Southern Boulevard when Deputy Ignacio Diaz, along with Cpl. Luis Paez and Deputy Sheriff Ralph Waller, were conducting traffic enforcement in the area.
According to Sheriff Ric Bradshaw, the deputies were on the shoulder of the road when they were struck by a female driver who was attempting to pass a vehicle on her right. The driver overcompensated, causing the deputies to be hit and thrown in different directions.
