A driver in Apopka was killed around midnight this morning when he was pinned between a guardrail and his car after being partially ejected from his vehicle after a collision according to reports from the FHP.

Anthony Hanks, 44 of Orlando, was traveling southbound on Lakeville Road, under the overpass to State Road 414. His 2005 Chevy Tahoe left the southbound lane and crossed over the northbound lane. Hanks' left front collided with the guardrail, partially ejecting him from the vehicle. Hanks then re-entered the southbound lane and the Tahoe's right side collided with a guardrail. Hanks then left the southbound lane again, crossed over the northbound lane again, and the Tahoe's left side and Hanks' upper portion collided with the guardrail. Hanks was pinned between the car and the guardrail. He was not wearing a seat belt.

The crash remains under investigation.
