Three Injured In Beulah Crash

September 28, 2017

Three people were injured — at least two of them as “trauma alerts” — in a Thursday morning crash in Beulah.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol, 30-year old Jacob L. Pate of Mobile was driving a tractor-trailer rig that crossed over the lane divider as he entered the intersection of Nine Mile Road and Beulah Road. His truck collided with a Ford F150 driven by 55-year old Jimmy D. Marlow of Pensacola.

The tractor-trailer continued where it collided with a Ford F150 lawn service truck driven by 54-year old Roy D. Grissom of Pensacola before jackknifing and hitting a tree.

Grissom and his passenger, 45-year old James Rafferty, were seriously injured. Rafferty was airlifted by LifeFlight helicopter to Baptist Hospital, while Grissom was transported by Escambia County EMS to Sacred Heart Hospital.

Marlow received minor injuries; Pate was not injured.

Pate was cited for failure to maintain a single lane by the FHP.

    I hope everyone is going to be ok. My bus got caught up bc of the wreck. It could have been worse than it was. But i wish there was something they could do because every time there is a wreck at that intersection it is never good. But hope everyone is ok.

    I saw this when I went on my work break. It was horrible! Made me sick to my stomach just to look at it and know that people were in those vehicles. Praying for all involved.
