Fatal Teen Crash Under Investigation in Polk County


A teenager is dead after a car crash in Davenport early on Monday morning.

Polk County Sheriff’s deputies say, a Honda Civic, driven by Christopher Zigmund Lefkoski Drobnicki, 19, traveling forth on CR 547 in the Davenport area around 2:00 am, lost control and began to rotate counterclockwise.  As the vehicle rotated approximately 180 degrees, the rear struck a power pole just north of Shady Lane.

Deputies say the Civic continued to rotate and a secondary impact occurred when the driver’s door struck the same power pole and severed the pole at the base.

Drobnicki, who was not wearing a seat belt, was partially ejected through the rear window.  He was pronounced dead at the scene by Polk County Emergency Medical Service personnel.

The investigation is ongoing.
