(Satsuma, Alabama July 21, 2022) — On July 20, 2022, Brittney K. Talbot, 37, of Jay, Florida, and Christopher D. Knighten, 38, of Atmore, tragically died in a multi-vehicle crash around 12:45 p.m.
According to the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (aka the State Troopers), Talbot was driving a Honda Civic heading south when it was hit by a Dodge Ram pickup truck. The Civic and Ram crossed the median and went into the northbound lanes where they were hit by a Ford F-150 and Toyota Highlander. Knighten was a passenger in the Civic.
The two victims were pronounced dead at the scene. The Alabama State Troopers are investigating the crash.
***UPDATE***
Talbot’s sister, Mary Talbot, told Fox10 that Brittney and Christopher shared a son and that Brittney is leaving behind three sons. According to Mary, “she was a very good mother to her kids, a good mother,” and “[s]he done her best like any other mom.”
A Go Fund Me has been started to help with Brittany’s funeral arrangements.
