Monroe County, FL - A boat crash into the Card Sound Bridge on Wednesday night left at least two people injured and disrupted travel to the Florida Keys.
The Monroe County Sheriff's Office issued an alert shortly after 10 pm, confirming the incident.
While the cause of the crash remains under investigation, authorities report injuries and a complete closure of Card Sound Road, a vital route connecting Key Largo to the mainland.
Ocean Reef Fire Rescue, the department serving the nearby gated community, is handling the emergency response.
Residents and travelers are advised to use the alternative route, the 18 Mile Stretch of U.S. 1, until further notice.
