DEERFIELD BEACH, FL (Boca Post) (Copyright © 2023) — A Pompano Beach man died after being involved in a single-vehicle crash near Quiet Waters Park in Deerfield Beach.

According to the Broward Sheriff’s Office, shortly after 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 15, Broward Sheriff’s Office Traffic Homicide investigators responded to a traffic crash in the 300 block of Quiet Waters Park Drive in Deerfield Beach.

The preliminary investigation revealed William R. Pastoria was driving a 1999 Chevrolet Blazer traveling northbound on Quiet Waters Park Drive within Quiet Waters Park when he lost control of the vehicle and struck the raised curb on the passenger side.
