Molino Man Involved In Two Different Cantonment Crashes

July 8, 2009

A Molino man involved in a  domestic dispute in the Cantonment area Tuesday night was involved in two different accidents that reportedly sent four people to the hospital.

The second man and the woman got into the back of a 1998 Chevy pickup while Smith drove the truck away on Kingsfield. The other man in the fight reportedly chased the truck, hitting it on Kingsfield near Cabot Street. The man and woman who had been riding in the back of the pickup were injured in the crash. The identities of the second man and the woman have not yet been released.

Smith then fled the scene of the first wreck. That’s when he hit a 2009 Toyota at Cabot Street and Kingsfield Road, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. The driver of that vehicle, Samantha Barnsdale, 34, of Pensacola, and Smith where injured in that crash.

Smith was transported to Sacred Heart Hospital with minor injuries. Barnsdale was transported to West Florida Hospital, also with minor injures.

The FHP said that alcohol was not a factor in the second crash, and that Smith was not wearing a seat belt.

The accidents are still under investigation by the Florida Highway Patrol and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Deparment.

More information will be posted as it becomes available.

    Domestic Violence courses should be prerequisite for a high school diploma.
    Domestic Violence courses should at least be mandatory before obtaining a marriage license in Florida.
