An early morning car accident claims the life of an Andalusia man.                      

37-year old Christopher Milton Pettus died when his 1998 Chevrolet Blazer left the roadway and overturned after hitting a culvert.

Alabama State Troopers say the man was not wearing a seat belt when the crash happened just after 3:00 a.m., on US 84 inside Sanford city limits.

Troopers continue to investigate the crash.
