WILTON MANORS, Fla. ā€“ One person is dead and another hospitalized after a man driving a truck struck them on Saturday at the Stonewall Pride Parade in Wilton Manors.

Newly obtained surveillance video shows a white pickup truck crashing into a fence and mowing down the plants at the Fort Lauderdale Garden Center on Northeast Fourth Avenue near 16th Street.

Seconds earlier, off-camera, the same pickup truck plowed into a crowd of people at the LGBTQ parade in Wilton Manors.

ā€œIt was bad,ā€ said Keith Witusik, a mechanic at the Fort Lauderdale Garden Center. ā€œI was like, ā€˜Oh my God. I canā€™t believe this is happening.ā€™ā€

First responders within the crowd quickly helped the two men who were hit, performing CPR.

ā€œBoth males were transported to Broward Health Medical Center, where one was later pronounced deceased,ā€ said Detective Ali Adamson with the Fort Lauderdale Police Department. ā€œThe other male remains in Broward Health Medical Center and is expected to survive.ā€

Authorities have not named either of the victims yet.

According to Fort Lauderdale police, the elderly driver remained at the scene and has been cooperating with investigators.
