WEST PALM BEACH, FL (Boca Post) (Copyright © 2023) — 52-year-old David Campbell passed away after he was struck by a vehicle in suburban West Palm Beach early on Tuesday, August 29th, 2023.

According to the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office, Henry Grimes was heading north on Congress Avenue, north of Gun Club Road in the northbound lane. At the same time, David Campbell was crossing eastward across Congress Avenue, north of Gun Club Road.

Unfortunately, David Campbell entered the path of Grimes’ Mazda CX30, resulting in a collision between the front of the vehicle and the right side of Campbell. The impact caused Campbell to be thrown off the passenger side of Grimes’ vehicle and onto the roadway.
