One person was injured in a single vehicle accident early Wednesday morning in Bratt.

The accident happened just after 5:30 a.m. on West Highway 4 near Vaughn Road. The driver of a pickup told authorities that he was westbound on Highway 4 when he lost control and ran off the road. His truck traveled through fences on two different pieces of property and came to rest upright in the yard of home.

The driver was transported by Atmore Ambulance to Atmore Community Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

It was extremely foggy at the time of the accident, but it was not immediately known if fog contributed to the crash. The accident is still under investigation by the Florida Highway Patrol. Further details were not available.

The Walnut Hill Station of Escambia Fire Rescue and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department also responded to the call.

    Dang! That truck is all banged up, hope the driver is alright… And it sure has been foggy for sure these last few mornings. The driver was very lucky by the looks of that truck.
