Rescue crews have taken five people to the hospital following a violent multi-vehicle crash along Interstate 95 in Pembroke Park that shut down almost all southbound lanes in the middle of rush hour.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, seven vehicles were involved in the wreck that took place near Hallandale Beach Boulevard at around 7:15 a.m. on Friday.
An aerial view of the wreck just after 10 a.m. shows a box truck and a sedan with extensive damage surrounded by fire trucks, as only one southbound lane remained open to traffic.
Of the five victims transported to Memorial Regional Hospital, fire rescue officials said, four were transported as trauma alerts.
Fortunately, FHP investigators said, no victim suffered life-threatening injuries.
Four of the seven vehicles have since been towed from the scene. Officials urge drivers to avoid the area and seek alternate routes.
