No one was injured in a two-tractor-trailer crash that led Florida Highway Patrol troopers to shut down a stretch of southbound Interstate 95 in Flagler County in the early morning hours of April 22, shortly after midnight, according to a news release from the FHP.

The crash occurred at 12:15 a.m. when a tractor-trailer driver by a 54-year-old Bowling Green, Florida man rear-ended a tractor-trailer driven by a 63-year-old Brunswick, Georgia woman in the southbound lanes near mile marker 295, about two miles north of the Matanzas Woods Parkway exit.

The man's tractor-trailer lost control and struck a guard rail, and the trailer disconnected and blocked all of the southbound lanes. No one was hurt, and the road has since been reopened, according to the news release.
