Medical Condition Leads To Crash Involving Jay Woman

April 10, 2013

A medical condition led to a Jay woman being seriously injured in a wreck Tuesday afternoon north of Pace.

The Florida Highway Patrol said 32-year old Sarah Layne Hatfield was southbound on Chumuckla Highway when she apparently suffered a seizure or fainting spell. Her 2005 Chevrolet Blazer crossed the center line and collided with a Peterbuilt truck driven by 60-year old Steven B. Lowry of Irvington, Ala., and 2010 Nissan driven by 28-year old
Ryan Daniel Teel of Pace.

Lowry was transported to West Florida Hospital with minor injuries, while Teel was not hospitalized. Hatfield was transported to Baptist Hospital in Pensacola in serious condition.

The FHP said Hatfield was not charged, but she is being recommended for a medical re-evaluation of her driver’s license.
