A man found to be stabbed after a wreck in Cantonment late last month has now been arrested.

Edward Allen Boyd, age 48 of Cantonment, was charged this week with battery and burglary of an occupied dwelling. He remains in the Escambia County Jail with bond set at $150,000.

Boyd crashed his Kia Sportage into a utility pole near Tree Street, just south of Muscogee Road about 1:15 a.m.  on April 30. He was found lying in a pool of blood in the middle of the road, suffering from multiple stab woulds.

Deputies said that before the accident,  he burst into his ex-girlfriend’s home in the 800 block of Highway 95A and attacked a male inside the residence.  The ex-girlfriend grabbed a survival knife and defended the man, according to an arrest report, stabbing Boyd multiple times in the back.

Boyd then fled the scene in his vehicle and was involved the traffic crash.

Deputies said the ex-girlfriend will not face any charges for stabbing Boyd.
