PENSACOLA, FL : Woman seriously injured in funeral procession crash on February, Wednesday 7th 2018
The Florida Highway Patrol says a 66-year-old Florida woman was seriously injured when she crashed into a car that was stopped for a passing funeral procession.

She hit the car driven by 27-year-old Breanna Williams of Frisco City, Alabama.
The Pensacola News Journal reports the force of the collision pushed Williams’ car off the road and into a ditch. She suffered minor injuries.
