BOCA RATON – The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office said a mother and daughter were killed just after 8 p.m. March 9 when another car slammed broadside into the vehicle they were riding in.
The PBSO report said Angelina Ferrarella, 85, and Donna D’Angelo, 54, both of Boca Raton, died and five others were injured in the two-vehicle accident at State Road 7 and Sandalfoot Boulevard.
The report said Joanne Luu, 19, who was driving a 2003 BMW northbound on State Road 7, allegedly failed to stop at a red light and struck the eastbound 2001 Toyota driven by 84-year-old Liborio Ferrarella, the Sheriff’s Office said.
Luu and her passenger, Daniel Maplethorpe, 26, suffered minor injuries, but Liborio Ferrarella, the victims’ husband and father, was seriously hurt, said the report.
