Finding out about a car wreck in my area?

Question

There was a really bad wreck yesterday, and I'm not exactly sure how to find out about it, is there a website or something?

It was in Middleburg, Florida. I'm curious because it had six teenagers in it, some were life-flighted, and the car flipped, kids were launched out of the vehicle. I wanted to know if there was anyone I knew in it.

Any advice?

Answer 1

Always check the websites of local news sources.   The police have more important things to do than satisfy your idle curiousity.
