A 48-year-old Avon Park woman died early Sunday morning when she drove her car down a boat ramp and
40 feet into Lake Lelia.

According to a Florida Highway Patrol report, Tonia C. Harmon was driving a 1998 Nissan Maxima east on W. Martin Road approaching S. Saxon Lane at about 12:45 a.m. She failed to negotiate a curve and continued traveling east toward the boat ramp for Lake Lelia.
