September 7, 2015

A driver escaped injury when he plowed into a guardrail on Highway 97 about a mile south of Alabama state line early Monday morning.

The male driver was southbound on Highway 97 just north of Nokomis Road when he failed to properly negotiate a curve in his Nissan Frontier pickup and struck the guardrail about 2:35 a.m. He was evaluated on scene by Escambia County EMS and refused transport to the hospital.

The accident is under investigation by the Florida Highway Patrol; the driver’s name has not been released.

The Walnut Hill Station of Escambia Fire Rescue also responded to the crash.
