Man Charged With Hitting Woman With Vehicle, Trying To Run Over First Responders
May 11, 2016
A Cantonment man has been arrested after running over a woman, fleeing from police and then returning to the scene to try to run over first responders.
David Neil Slocovich, 26, was arrested on multiple charges Wednesday morning after the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office received a report that a woman had been struck by a vehicle in the 400 block of Well Line Road. Witnesses told deputies that they heard the female victim and Slocovich arguing before he put the vehicle into reverse and backed over the woman.
A responding deputy noticed the suspect’s green Lincoln traveling on Highway 29 and began to pursue the vehicle. Slocovich would not stop and drove back to Well Line Road where he tried to run over the EMS personnel and deputies rendering aid to the victim. Everyone got out of the way and there were no additional injuries, deputies said. Slocovich was arrested after he drove the vehicle into the tree line.
He was charged with three counts of aggravated battery on a law enforcement officer, aggravated battery domestic violence, aggravated assault, battery with intent to harm, vehicle theft, driving with a suspended license, and fleeing and eluding law enforcement.
Slocovich was booked into the Escambia County Jail without bond.
The female was transported to a local hospital for treatment. No further information on her condition was made available.

Boy what a fool or better yet nut or idiot either way lock his butt up until he straightens up and acts right
You ain’t in Belarus anymore Dorthy.
Welcome to Cantonment, where we do not place our hands on women in anger. Most of us anyway.
Agree Rodney. Where is justice?
I personally saw the woman today who was injured she is really bruised up but alive and able to walk I hope the best for her!
Would if be wrong to include attempted murder? He tried to run over people with a vehicle and I can’t think of a time when that would be due to good intentions.
Can they put him away for life? No bond is a great start. What is this guys problem? I hope all of these people are OK.
No DUI!?! This guy was sober when he did all this!?! Wow!
The details of this incident, & what drove this young man to all this, will probably never be known to the general public. All I can add is that if another person is driving you insane you need to get away from them, they are not worth going to prison for.
