(DOTHAN, Ala.) On February 8, 2026, just after 7:00 pm, the Dothan Communications Center received a call of a pedestrian struck by a vehicle in the 4700 block of Montgomery Highway in front of the Dothan Pavilion Shopping Center. When officers arrived, the victim, later identified as David Allen Tice (18) of Dothan, was found in the roadway and pronounced deceased at the scene.
According to the initial investigation, Tice was crossing Montgomery Highway from the area of La Parilla to Walmart when he was struck by a vehicle in the southbound lanes. Tice was struck by a following vehicle that was unable to see him in the roadway. Unless more information is revealed, the drivers of the two vehicles are not expected to face charges in this case.
Anytime someone dies is a tragic day regardless of circumstances. Our thoughts and prayers are with Tice’s family and friends as they go through this difficult time. The case is being investigated by the Dothan Police Department CRASH Team and is ongoing.
