GADSDEN CO, Fla. (WTXL) - One man is dead, and another behind bars following a fatal crash in Gadsden County. 

34 year old Travis Jacobs was driving on on U.S. 90 near Lanier Road, when he veered into the median causing the car to flip. Officials say Jacobs was not wearing a seat belt and was thrown from the vehicle.

Several lanes were blocked off following the accident. While officers were investigating, a vehicle entered the roadblock and almost hit troopers.

The driver of that vehicle, Miguel Calderon Hurtado was arrested for driving under the influence. He was taken to the Gadsden County jail, and has since bonded out.
