Alabama Man Critically Injured In Wreck Outside Jay
January 24, 2013
An Alabama man was critically injured in a three vehicle wreck southeast of Jay Wednesday night.
The Florida Highway Patrol said two vehicles were stopped for a turning vehicle on Highway 87 near Country Mill Road. As 63-year old David M. Kicker of Repton, AL, approached from behind, he struck one stopped vehicle, pushing it into the other vehicle. Kicker’s 2010 Ford Explorer continued into the ditch while rotating. Then with just the left front tire on the surface of the roadway, his SUV barrel-rolled one complete rotation in the ditch before coming to rest on all four tires, the FHP reported.
Kicker was airlifted to Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola in critical condition.
The driver of the vehicle first struck by Kicker’s SUV, 20-year old Orion Wayne Motsco of Jay, was not injured, but his 2006 Honda Accord was totaled. The driver of the third vehicle, 47-year old John P. Miller of Robertsdale, AL, was also not injured.
The accident remains under investigation by the Florida Highway Patrol.
