BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. -- A 70-year-old man died while driving in Boynton Beach on Monday afternoon.

The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office says John F. Wilson of Greenacres possibly had a medical episode while driving northbound on Jog Road, north of Boynton Beach Boulevard, and lost control of his vehicle.

As his 2011 Mazda3 veered to the right, the left front hit the rear of an unoccupied vehicle that was being towed.

Wilson's car traveled over the sidewalk and impacted several bushes.

He was transported to Delray Medical Center where he was pronounced deceased. His cause of death has not yet been determined.
