The Brief

BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. - A dump truck hauling an excavator struck the concrete bridge of an overpass on Interstate 95 Friday morning, closing a portion of the southbound lanes for hours, and sending chunks of concrete to the street below, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

FHP troopers said the driver of that dump truck then drove away from the scene.

The crash happened shortly after 12 p.m., near mile marker 205, shutting down at least two southbound lanes, causing miles of backups. Traffic was able to get back via one lane, a FHP spokesperson told FOX 35. Image 1 of 8 ▼
