The Florida Highway Patrol said 50-year old Laurie Ann Povinelli of Milton was traveling west on I-10 between Avalon Boulevard and the Escambia Bay Bridge when she veered across the median. Her 2005 Chevrolet Aveo slid into the eastbound lane and the path of a 2008 Jeep Liberty driven by 28-year old Joshua Poole of Milton.
Povinelli died from her injuries, while Poole suffered serious injuries and was transported to Sacred Heart Hospital, according to the FHP.

The cause of the incident remains under investigation; no charges have been filed. The dog, which was not hurt, returned home on its own.
