Two people were injured in a traffic crash Friday afternoon after pulling into the path of a semi.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, 22-year old Ederlin Pimentel of Century was stopped at the stop sign on Jefferson Avenue at West Highway 4 about 2:35 p.m. Pimentel then accelerated into the intersection, causing 43-year old Chad Cooper of Brewton to swerve his 2013 Volvo semi . The front right of Pimentel’s 2012 Mazda struck a ladder on left side of the semi. The semi’s axle struck the car, causing it to rotate.
Pimentel and passenger Alyssa Moya of Century were transported to Jay Hospital with minor injuries. Cooper was uninjured.
Pimentel was cited with violation of right of way at a stop intersection, according to FHP.
