A 9-year-old girl was killed Friday morning in a crash with a semi-truck on I-95 Southbound, near Airport Road, the Florida Highway Patrol said.
The FHP report said a 25-year-old man from Jacksonville was traveling southbound around 12 a.m. Friday on I-95 when his sedan failed to stop and crashed into the back of a semi-truck. He is suffering critical injuries.
The 9-year-old girl that was riding with that man died at the scene, FHP said. The report said it’s unknown if either of them were wearing a seatbelt.
The 38-year-old man driving the semi was not injured.
The interstate from Pecan Park Road to Airport Drive was closed for more than 4 hours while troopers investigated.
It has since reopened.
