Six of nine vehicles came loose from a car transporter during an early-morning crash on I-95 at Dunn Ave.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — All lanes of I-95 have reopened at Dunn Ave. hours after the driver of a car transporter truck lost control, then lost most of the load he was carrying. 

The Florida Highway Patrol says the driver, a 35-year-old from Hialeah, lost control just after midnight Thursday on I-95 southbound and slammed the car transporter into the center barricade. FHP says one vehicle came untethered and sailed into the northbound lanes, where the driver of a tractor-trailer crashed into it. The car transporter came to a rest on its side and sent five more vehicles onto the northbound lanes and center median. 

The only person hurt was a passenger in the car transporter. FHP says those injuries are minor. The cause of the crash is still under investigation.
