Two Children, Ages 4 & 6, Tragically Killed By Truck On Florida Mini-Golf Course

Tragedy struck a Kentucky family while they were on vacation in Panama City Beach, Fla., when their two children were killed after a man drove his truck onto a mini-golf course on Friday, December 4.

Scott Donaldson drove his Chevrolet Silverado into the Coconut Creek Golf and Maze and hit the children — who were six and four years old — as the family played golf at the resort. The boy died on the scene, and his sister passed away after she was rushed to the hospital. 

"This is a tragic event and our thoughts and prayers go out to the family," police spokesperson Debbie Ward said in a statement. "We have had grief counselors and clergy with the family since this happened."

Coconut Creek Golf and Maze visitors left condolences for the grieving parents. "My heart goes out to the sweet family, the wonderful people at Coconut Creek, and the people who witnessed this firsthand. Love and prayers for all," one user wrote.
