DEFUNIAK SPRINGS – A 55-year-old woman suffered serious injuries after she fell out of a motor home that was traveling on Interstate 10.

About 4 p.m. Tuesday, three people from Midland City, Ala., were heading westbound on I-10 a few miles from the U.S. Highway 331 exit in a 1975 Dodge motor home when Sharon R. Glover walked to the rear of the motor home to use the restroom, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. Glover somehow fell out of the vehicle and slid 100 feet on the paved emergency lane before hitting the grass shoulder.

“It is unknown if the passenger opened the wrong door or leaned on the door,” an FHP news release said.

The driver, 50-year-old Bonnie J. Rickett, noticed that Glover had fallen out of the motor home and pulled off the road about a quarter mile west of where she hit the ground, the release said. Glover was taken to Sacred Heart Hospital in Pensacola with serious injuries.

Rickett was not under the influence of alcohol, but Glover had been drinking, the release said. Another passenger, 53-year-old Stanley J. Rickett, was also in the motor home.

No charges are pending.
