OKALOOSA COUNTY-A man is dead after running his car into a culvert Saturday afternoon.

It happened at Old Bethel Road in Okaloosa County just north of Sioux Circle.

Florida Highway Patrol investigators say 55-year-old Paul Leavins was driving on Old Bethel Road around 2:00p.m. Saturday when he came to a left hand curve in the road and drove onto the shoulder.

Investigators say he struck a concrete culvert.

He was thrown from the car and then taken to North Okaloosa Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.
