Florida Highway Patrol said Johnston's car hit two Jacksonville Sheriff's Office employees early Sunday morning while they were traveling on I-95, causing them to lose control and overturn.

The two employees -- Cathy Adams, a JSO bailiff, and her husband William "Jack" Adams, a JSO officer were reportedly traveling back from the state championship game, where the Mandarin Mustangs claimed a state title in football.

Their two teenagers were also in the car.

Johnston reportedly refused to blow for a breathalyzer test.

JSO announced Sunday night that Cathy Adams died of her injuries. She was 43.

The Facebook page of Oakleaf Family Chiropractic mentioned the crash, stating:
