JACKSON COUNTY, Ala – Early this morning, a tragic accident took place in Jackson County, resulting in the loss of a woman from Ashford and serious injuries to three others, including a young girl.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the Ashford woman was driving a pickup truck south on State Road 273 when it veered across the road’s centre line and collided with a sedan heading north, causing it to spin.
