May 11, 2012

A vehicle struck a carport and a 150 gallon propane tank  in Pensacola this morning, creating a bit of tense situation for hours.

The Florida Highway Patrol said Amy T. Le, 19,  was northbound on Gregg Road near Olive Road (near the side entrance of Academy Sports) when an animal ran into her path of her 2005 BMW about 4:35 a.m.. She veered off the roadway into a propane tank and the brick support of carport at 8036 Gregg Road. The vehicle came to rest under the carport.

An Escambia Fire Rescue special operations team was called to the scene to deal with the propane leak and was still on scene at 8 a.m. There was no explosion or fire.

Le was not injured in the accident.
