Man Dies In Pensacola Accident

August 26, 2012

Excessive speed is believed to have contributed to a single-vehicle crash that claimed theĀ  life of a Pensacola man late Saturday night.

David J. Potorski II, 30, of the 100 block of West Moreno Street, died at the scene of the crash, which occurred just before midnight at 17th Avenue and Bayfront Parkway, said Officer
Melinda Ply.

Potorski was driving a red Honda Civic westbound on Gregory Street just west of 17th Avenue when he drove off the north side of the road, re-entered the road and crossed Gregory Street. The car then struck a short brick retaining wall and came to a stop on the south side of the wall.

Potorski was wearing a seatbelt. He was the third traffic fatality this year within city limits.
