Bryan Co., OK -- A Cartwright man is recovering after a major accident in Bryan County.

It happened on Highway 70 just west of Mead, around 6:00 pm Friday.

Authorities say a Ford pickup was eastbound when the driver may have fallen asleep and ran off the road, struck an embankment and went airborne.

That truck came to a stop after hitting another embankment.

29-year-old Allan Golden was flown to McKinney where he was last listed in stable condition. Sources tell KXII-TV Golden serves as an Achille police officer.

My son was two days old and I was driving to Oklahoma City for a Dr. Appt. I was on my way home when the wreck happened. ALL of my boys have been here to see me. In order. Jonathan, Dakota (NOT Cody), Allen Jr. and Ethan. I am doing well in rehab now and thank you all for your prayers and thoughtful wishes. I am used to being bad mouthed as an officer because some people discriminate against me because of my profession. This is your constitutional right. But it is also my right to say get out of my business if you don't know what is going on. I did make a mistake by fallinf asleep. I thank God I did not hit anyone and only hurt myself. God Bless and Thank You. Allen

I knew allan when he was a bokchito police officer. Wishing you a fast and speedy recovery. Meagan and allan congrats on the baby boy

Evidently he has two boys that nobody wants to mention, how sad. They are affected too, or does that matter? Great that he is doing better maybe someone should let his two oldest children know how he is doing.

well his first son is jon and his second son with amanda his name isnt cody so u really dont know her that well do u. then he has a third son with me and the new baby is his 4th son. and, the baby was born on the 16th and wrecked on the 18th but he was stil at the hospital with me the whole time helping me care for our newborn. why does everyone have to start an argurment over every little thing? update on him. he is doing great! i havent got to see him yet because of so soon having the baby. but will be going up there soon. he is stable but its going to take months to recover. (anyone knows u cant rest well in a hospital) he was forced to drive had no choice. it was a last min thing. well thank yall for all ur prayers and support everyone had gave me.

dont u want to konw in bryan says Allan was up all night watching his baby being born, but the accident happened friday the 18th, at 6 pm and the baby is four days old, on the 19th, so what calendar did you use to come up with the 6pm wreck on the 18th was a result of the birth of his son on 15th?
