August 19, 2015

A Cantonment woman was critically injured when she rear-ended a parked UPS truck Wednesday morning in Cottage Hill.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol, 77-year old Sharon K. Gipson was westbound on Eden Lane approaching Virecent Road as the unoccupied UPS truck was parked with hazard lights activated in the westbound lane of Eden Lane making a parcel delivery.

The FHP said Gipson rear-ended the UPS truck before her 2006 Nissan Maxima rolled eastbound on Eden Lane and struck a tree.

Gipson, who was not wearing a seat belt, was transported to Sacred Heart Hospital as a “trauma alert”. Any charges in the accident are pending.
