Bridge traffic was shut down Friday morning in Destin due to a boat that was caught underneath.
Officials say nobody was injured, and the bridge has been reopened.
The boat was being towed, and the county says it had planned to use it as a reef before getting caught in the current, according to officials.
The City of Destin says the Florida Department of Transportation is on the scene assessing the bridge for damage.
