Person hit by car at Orlando International Airport; traffic blocked
THERE? WE ARE ON TOP OF GARAGE B HERE AT ORLANDO INTERNATIONAL. IF YOU LOOK BEHIND ME YOU CAN SEE BACK THERE THAT’S JEFF FUQUA BOULEVARD, THE MAIN ROAD THAT GOES AROUND THE AIRPORT WHERE IF YOU’VE EVER COMING OUT HERE, YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO DRIVE AROUND IT. IT GOES AROUND IN A CIRCLE AROUND THE AIRPORT. YOU CAN SEE ALL OF THE POLICE VEHICLES THERE BLOCKING THAT ONE LANE. THERE ARE STILL SOME CARS GETTING PAST IT, BUT THEY ARE BLOCKING THAT PART OF JEFF BOULEVARD, AS WELL AS SOME OTHER PARTS THROUGHOUT THE AIRPORT. WE ARE TOLD BY THE AIRPORT OFFICIALS THAT THERE WAS A PEDESTRIAN CRASH HERE. A CAR HIT A PEDESTRIAN. WE DON’T KNOW EXACTLY HOW SERIOUS THEIR INJURIES ARE, BUT I CAN TELL YOU, WHEN WE WENT PAST THIS ACCIDENT SCENE JUST A LITTLE WHILE AGO, I DID SEE WHAT LOOKED LIKE A BODY ON THE GROUND THAT INVESTIGATORS WERE LOOKING AT AND TAKING PICTURES OF AS WELL. SO THAT APPEARS TO BE A FATAL CRASH HERE ON THIS ROAD THAT GOES AROUND THE AIRPORT. IT’S ALSO IN A PLACE WHERE YOU WOULD NOT EXPECT TO SEE SOMEONE WALKING ACROSS THE ROAD. THAT’S NOT A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE WILL BE GOING INTO THE AIRPORT OR COMING OUT OF THE GARAGE WALKING INTO THE AIRPORT. A VERY UNUSUAL PLACE FOR SOMEONE TO BE ON FOOT AT THE AIRPORT. SO AT THIS POINT, WE DON’T KNOW EXACTLY HOW THAT HAPPENED. WE ARE WORKING TO GET MORE INFORMATION FROM ORLANDO POLICE. THE AIRPORT SAYS YOU CAN EXPECT THAT THERE WILL
