Dump Truck Driver Seriously Injured In Cantonment Rollover Crash
August 26, 2021
A dump truck driver was seriously injured when his truck overturned Thursday morning in Cantonment.
Firefighters worked about 20 minutes to extricate the 51-year old driver from the wreckage on Muscogee Road near Beulah Road. The driver was airlifted to a Pensacola hospital with injuries not considered life threatening.
The Florida Highway Patrol said the crash about 8:10 a.m. was due to a mechanical failure as the driver attempted to make a right turn.
The Cantonment, Beulah, Bellview, and Brent stations of Escambia Fire Rescue responded, along with Escambia County EMS and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office.

“mechanical issue”…..
Oh boy…. FDOT will have a field day with this one
Jr – wasn’t any of those roads. It was an un-named dirt road
@Jr The driver had to be either turning onto Muskogee rd , Beulah rd or River annex, thats the only options.
What road was he trying to turn on to? Praying for this fella
Praying for him that he’ll have a fast recovery.
