EVERGLADES CITY, Fla. (AP) — Authorities say a man died after running out of a Collier County Sheriff’s substation and into the path of a pickup truck.

The Florida Highway Patrol says 20-year-old Samuel Mendoza Carrillo died at the scene along U.S. 41 in Everglades City late Sunday. The truck was driven by 23-year-old Christopher Taylor of Riverview.
