A Crawford man died in a single-vehicle accident in south Lowndes County Tuesday night.
Lowndes County Coroner Greg Merchant identified the victim as Cedrick Jamison, 39. The crash occurred when Jamison ran off the road near the intersection of Swedenburg Road and Hardy Billups Road in Crawford.
Merchant said Jamison apparently lost control of the SUV he was driving and that when it ran off the road, it overturned. Jamison was ejected from the vehicle and pinned underneath it.
Authorities pronounced him dead at the scene.
Merchant said it’s unclear at this time why Jamison lost control. No autopsy has been scheduled.
