One Serious After Collision With Escambia Deputy

July 18, 2016

One person was seriously injured in a collision involving an Escambia County deputy Sunday night.

About 9:04 p.m., a Ford Taurus driven by 24-year old Jasmine Dodds of Bonifay was traveling north on Pine Forest Road at Blue Angel Parkway when she turned into the path of a marked Escambia County Sheriff’s Office cruiser driven by Deputy M. Keebler, 24. according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

Dodds., who was not wearing a seat belt, was seriously injured and transported to Sacred Heart Hospital. Two adult passengers in her vehicle received minor injuries.

Deputy Keebler received only minor injuries and was not transported to the hospital.

Dodds was cited for an improper left turn in front of approaching traffic by the FHP.

    I’m glad they pulled in front of an SUV with a push bumper instead of me on my bike.

    How does one turn in front of a law officer? I figure they have the right-of-way and I am never in that big a hurry.

    Thank You Northescambia.com for making it clear in Bold Black Letters that our ECSO was not at fault.Cause I see comments alot of times where they just don’t read the whole article and y’all do an amazing job at keeping us informed with what info you have available. I Appreciate it!! But now days people are trying to find our law enforcement agencies, fire fighters EMT, doctors pharmacy and hospitals at fault all the time. Look on the TV at the LAWYERS commercial. It’s makes me sick…People get out an work it makes you a better person cause you have to work for what you have or want. Sorry for ranting but tired of seeing how people miss read and will miss read this article and put the blame on our Officer. Thank God everyone is fine. But hate seeing ECSO always blamed for something….NOT THIS TIME PEOPLE. Please read the whole article before judging them it really does make your comments make good sense.
