Escambia County, FL — May 4, 2023, at least one person sustained injuries as the result of a semi-truck accident at around 7:30 a.m. along Highway 29.
Authorities with the Florida Highway Patrol were called out to the area at the intersection of Highway 29 and Highway 97 on the northwest side of Molino by the Tom Thumb gas station.
