FL Man Brad Wloczewski ID’d As Victim In Sunday Palm Beach Fatal Crash

WEST PALM BEACH, FL. (THECOUNT) — Bradley J. Wloczewski, a West Palm Beach man, was killed Sunday evening after the SUV he was driving overturned on Southern Boulevard near Palm Beach International Airport, ejecting him from the vehicle, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office. He was 32.

The crash occurred at approximately 5:13 p.m. on March 8, 2026, on westbound Southern Boulevard near Perimeter Road in West Palm Beach. According to a Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office traffic homicide report, Wloczewski was driving a 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe westbound on Southern Boulevard when he drifted over the right-side curb and onto part of the sidewalk. He then steered sharply back into the westbound lane and over-corrected, turning heavily to the right, causing the SUV to rotate and slide over the northern curb and sidewalk. The Tahoe struck a metal guardrail, overturned, and ejected Wloczewski from the vehicle. He was pronounced dead at the scene by Palm Beach County Fire Rescue.

Two passengers were also inside the Tahoe at the time of the crash. A 29-year-old woman from West Palm Beach, who was wearing a seatbelt, sustained minor injuries. A 28-year-old woman from Hendersonville, Tennessee sustained serious injuries. Both were transported to a local trauma center, according to Palm Beach County Fire Rescue. The identities of the two passengers have not been publicly released.

During the crash, a section of the damaged guardrail was propelled into a second vehicle — a 2025 Volvo SUV traveling in the area, driven by a 41-year-old man from West Palm Beach identified in reports as Ramirez. He pulled over immediately following the impact and sustained only minor injuries. His full name has not been publicly released.

The crash shut down the westbound lanes of Southern Boulevard near Perimeter Road for several hours as Palm Beach County Fire Rescue and PBSO’s Traffic Homicide Unit documented roadway damage, vehicle positions, and debris. The Traffic Homicide Unit is continuing to investigate the cause of the crash. No charges have been announced as of the time of publication.
