3 Dead in Bryan Dairy Road Crash

LARGO, FL — The Florida Highway Patrol is investigating a Wednesday night crash on Bryan Dairy Road that left three people dead.

According to the agency, Hoang Minh Pham, 46, of Seminole was heading east on Bryan Dairy Road, west of Starkey Road, around 9:41 p.m. Sept. 21. As Pham was traveling in the inside lane, Ronald Reilly, 54, of Largo was heading west in the inside lane in a Cadillac DTS.

Pham tried to negotiate a curve in his Toyota Camry, but troopers say he lost control, went over the center median and into the westbound lanes. The Camry and Cadillac collided head-on troopers said.

Pham and Reilly both died at the scene. Reilly’s passenger, Kimberlee Kaye Stewart, 47, of Largo was taken to Largo Medical hospital for treatment. She died later from her injuries.

Troopers say alcohol does not appear to be a factor in the crash. No further information is available at this time.

The crash forced the closing of the roadway until 4:27 a.m. Sept. 22, a highway patrol email noted.
