A man was injured Monday when his vehicle was hit by a train in Cantonment.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol, 79-year old Herbert Turner was driving a 2017 Nissan Pathfinder on El Camino Driver when he crossed at a railroad crossing directly in the path of a southbound CSX train. The train’s front collided with the rear of the vehicle, spinning it counter clockwise and onto Old Novak Road.

Turner was transported by Escambia County EMS to West Florida Hospital with minor injuries. Any charges against Turner are pending the outcome of FHP’s investigation.
