Vacation Turns fatal After Car Flips Into Pond


ORLANDO -- A fatal car accident devastates a Jacksonville family on vacation in Orlando.
Dana King was killed and her fiancé and his children were hospitalized when the car they were driving flipped over into a retention pool.

It happened Saturday afternoon behind a Benihana eating place on the 12000 block of Floridays Resort Drive.

The vehicle crashed through a fence and into a retention pool between the resort and the eating place. Because the retention pool had a steep embankment, the car flipped over.

The father, Brandon Nesmith, and his 14-year-old daughter, Ariel King, were capable to get out of the car.

But bystanders and crisis personnel had to jump into the water to help get the 33-year-old's two other daughters, Taylor and Brealyn, out.

While Nesmith and his children were transported to region hospitals, the Orange County Dive group continued to search for the 35-year-old woman.
