FHP Seeks Driver With Only Two Front Teeth In Cantonment Hit And Run (With New Photo)

July 5, 2025

The Florida Highway Patrol is still asking for the public’s help in locating a Jeep involved in a hit-and-run crash on Highway 29 last month.

NorthEscambia.com has now obtained dashcam images from FHP of the alleged hit-and-run driver.

About 2 p.m. on Monday, June 2, a gray Jeep Gladiator was observed traveling north on Highway 29 near Highway 95A in Cantonment. FHP says the Jeep failed to stop for traffic ahead, which resulted in it rear-ending a white Lincoln Navigator. The Jeep driver stopped briefly before fleeing north on Highway 29 toward Molino. Before he fled, he was captured on an Escambia County Sheriff’s Office dashcam, but the tag number is unreadable.

The driver of the Navigator described the driver of the Jeep as a white male in his 50s with only two front teeth and a blister on his left foot, according to troopers.

The Jeep Gladiator was described as having orange accent accessories with a small, unknown number Alabama tag. It was last seen northbound on Highway 29 passing Well Line Road.

“It is unknown at the time of the investigation if there is damage to the Jeep,” FHP said.

Anyone with information is asked to call *FHP.

    @ Renee, the deputy stopped to make sure everyone was ok while en-route to a call, FHP was already coming. This was a minor fender bender , meaning both vehicles were still drivable. Deputies do not work car accidents. The deputy left the scene to go handle a call,it was after the deputy left is when the guy fled the scene.

    Please keep looking for this individual. He needs to own up and take accountability and responsibility for his actions!!The lady he hit is the lady that was involved in that horrific wreck back in Dec of 2024, where she was severely injured and it took the life of her 12 year old daughter!!
    To the individual that hit her….if you are reading this please do the right thing and turn yourself in !

    Why didn’t the Escambia county cop stop him? If he took a picture of him off the dash cam he was close enough to stop him. Just a thought.

    Gee, you’d think with all the money the Sheriff has spent on technology, the camera would get better quality pics.
