Two Injured In Highway 4 Crash; One Airlifted
September 14, 2010
Two people were injured in a single vehicle accident near Century Tuesday morning with one airlifted to a Pensacola hospital in serious condition.
The accident was reported about 10:20 a.m. on West Highway 4 near Lake Stone. The Florida Highway Patrol says Willie A. Mitchell, 53, of Century lost control while westbound, struck a tree and a culvert before overturning several times before his 2004 Toyota came to rest partially back in Highway 4. According to the FHP, Mitchell may have suffered a medical condition that led to the crash.
Mitchell was transported by LifeFlight to Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola, while his passenger, Alfreda Sanders, 48, of Century, was transported by ambulance to Jay Hospital with minor injuries.
Charges against Mitchell are pending, according to the FHP.
Engine 519 from the Century Station of Escambia Fire Rescue, Escambia County EMS and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office responded to the accident.

I ran across this wreck, but obviously it had happened a little earlier than when I passed by there. I did see the car, deputies, state troopers and the tow truck still there. Looking at the car, I was saying to myself OH MY GOSH!!! I do hope and pray, that the man and woman involved in this wreck will be alright.
Prayers for all.
