Jay Teen Killed In Early Morning Wreck

August 30, 2015

A Jay teen died in a single vehicle accident early Sunday morning about four miles south of Jay.

David T. Palmer, 17, was traveling east on Bragg Lake Road off of Highway 89 when he failed to negotiate a curve, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. His 2008 Chevrolet began to rotate clockwise and traveled down an embankment. Palmer was pronounced deceased at the scene.

Investigators believe the crash occurred between 4:00 and 4:30 a.m., but an exact time has not yet been determined. Alcohol was not a factor in the crash. The FHP investigation is continuing.

    My prayers go out for this entire family I’ve known forever. This is the worst news a parent could receive and I’m so sorry they’re having to go through it. All we can do is pray that God comfort them now and forever to come, because this is something you don’t get over, you just learn to get through minute by minute and day by day. I love y’all very much and you’ll be in my thoughts and prayers..
