DEATHS TO DATE:
Stuart, Fla. (AP) At least six deaths are blamed on the latest hurricane to thrash Florida.

Two people died when the sport utility vehicle they were driving plunged into a lake beside the Sawgrass Expressway south of Boca Raton. In Clay County southwest of Jacksonville, a 15-year-old boy died after being pinned by a falling tree Sunday.

In Brevard County, a man was found dead in a ditch in Palm Bay in what police called an apparent drowning. In nearby Micco, a 60-year-old man was found dead after a hurricane party at a home. He was found lying in water after the house had flooded; police said the death may be alcohol-related or the man may have drowned.

Hurricane Jeanne blasted ashore Saturday night in the same part of Florida slammed by Frances three weeks ago.
