Five Injured In I-65 Rollover

January 12, 2013

Five people were injured in a single vehicle rollover accident on the interstate north of Atmore Friday.

The accident happened on the northbound side of I-65 about six miles north of Atmore. The 32-year old female driver of a SUV lost control for an unknown reason and ran off the roadway onto a grassy shoulder where the vehicle overturned.

The driver, along with a male passenger about seven years old and three female passengers ranging in age from 14-18 were transported by Atmore Ambulance and Escambia County (Fla.) EMS to Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola.

The names of the injured have not been released by Alabama State Troopers. However, officials said some of the injured are from the North Escambia area.

    The driver was the 32 year old female. The 7 year old male was a passenger, as well as me and my 2 other other friends
    the tire blew out and we lost control of car and it started flipping. Every one now is out of the hospital and safe thanks to the great lord above. God was with us that day and saved our lives. We come out with some ruff injuries but were just lucky to be alive

    @curious it says the driver and a male passenger about 10 years old not a 10 year old driver. I hope it ain’t the people you know. I hope whoever it is will be ok
