A road ranger was hospitalized Tuesday after being hit by a car while assisting at a crash scene in Orange County, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The road ranger, whose name was not released, stopped to check on a crash on State Road 417 at about 9 a.m. when a second crash happened about 50 feet away, FHP said.
