Lassiter, 63, of Century, was northbound on Highway 29 just north of Bluff Springs Road just before 6 a.m. when he lost control, ran off onto the shoulder of the road and overturned into the median, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. His Toyota truck came to rest upside down in the median of the highway. Lassiter was ejected from the vehicle, according to the FHP.
He was transported by ambulance to Sacred Heart Hospital in serious condition. LifeFlight was unable to respond to the scene due to morning fog.
Charges against Lassiter are pending, according to the FHP.
