This week, an 85-year-old driver named Mellie Marell of Bonifay, Florida was killed when she made a left turn and ran into the path of a patrol car. This happened Saturday morning in Holmes County.
The Florida Highway Patrol released a news article regarding the accident and determined that the woman turned in front of the Holmes County Sherrif’s vehicle driven by 20-year-old Zachary Nietsch of Bonifay. The emergency lights and siren were turned on the vehicle at the time, but she failed to yield right of way.
Nietsch also suffered injuries due to the accident.
