SEBRING - One of the victims of a two-vehicle crash near the Raceway gas station south of Sebring died Sunday at Tampa General Hospital, a Florida Highway Patrol press release stated.

Harland Hoeft, 92, died at 4:45 a.m. Sunday, more than a day after he pulled his 1998 Oldsmobile off of Orange Boulevard and into the path of a northbound 2002 Chevrolet.

After the crash at approximately 1:28 p.m. Friday, passenger Lydia Hoeft, 89, was taken to Highlands Regional Medical Center as well as Katherine Lind, 22, the driver of the Chevrolet.

According to an earlier FHP report compiled by Trooper Paul Miller, Harland Hoeft violated Lind's right-of-way as he attempted to make a left turn onto U.S. 27. Harland stopped in the center lane before impact.
