July 15, 2013

A Walnut Hill teen and two women were seriously injured in a two vehicle wreck Sunday afternoon on Lillian Highway.

The Florida Highway Patrol said 16-year old Deonte Mitchell of Walnut Hill was a passenger in a 2008 Mercury Milan driven by 24-year old Marshall Scott Gilson, Jr. of Pensacola. Their vehicle was traveling at an excessive speed when it entered the intersection of Lillian Highway and 69th Avenue and struck a 1993 Cadillac Deville before hitting a traffic light pole and numerous trees.

Mitchell was transported to Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola in serious condition, while Gilson was taken to Baptist Hospital with minor injuries. Another passenger in the vehicle, 22-year old Kenneth J. Nettles of Pensacola, received minor injuries. A fourth passenger in the vehicle, known only as “John”, fled the scene on foot, according to FHP.

The driver of the Cadillac, 46-year old Anja M. Gullen of Pensacola, and passenger 22-year old Sarah J. Morgan, were transported to Baptist Hospital in serious condition.

Gilson was cited for driving without a license and driving too fast for conditions. Gullen was cited for an expired driver’s license, troopers said.
