Witnesses told the Florida Highway Patrol that Osborne was driving erratically on SR-.21 right before the crash.

Osborne only had Alprazolam in his blood, at levels significant enough to affect his normal faculties and impair his ability to operate a vehicle, according to the report. 

He's being held on $75,000 bond in the Clay County Jail.
