Pensacola Man Dies In North Escambia Crash Early Sunday Morning

June 28, 2009

A Pensacola man died in an early Sunday morning accident on Highway 29 near McDavid.

The Florida Highway Patrol says Anthony Bernard Johnson, 44, of Pensacola, was killed in the single vehicle accident on Highway 29 just south of Cox Road about 1:10 Sunday morning.

Johnson was headed south on Highway 29 when he ran off the road, overcorrected and lost control of his 2001 GMC Yukon. The Yukon continued across the median and overturned as it crossed over the northbound lanes of Highway 29. The vehicle continued to roll as it traveled down a steep embankment on the east side of the highway.

Johnson was not wearing his seat belt and was ejected in the crash, according the FHP. He was pronounced dead at the scene by an Escambia County EMS paramedic. He was the only occupant of the vehicle.

Alcohol test results in the crash are pending, according to the FHP.

    I did not know this man—but I do speak with his son who works at the Tom Thumb in Molino. The son also goes to school. I hope the family can remember the good time. My thoughts are with them at this very hard and difficult time.
