Five people have been injured, three seriously, in a rollover crash on I-95 near the Lantana Road exit, said a spokesman for Palm Beach County Fire Rescue. Rescue crews responding to the 10:17 a.m. crash found that several people had been ejected from their vehicles. An initial report indicated that one person may had been ejected onto the Tri-Rail tracks, causing the rail service to be temporarily suspended. No one was found lying on the tracks, and a short time later Tri-Rail service was resumed. Several people were trapped inside one of the vehicles and rescue crews used the "Jaws of Life" to free them. Five people required medical treatment; three of them met trauma-alert criteria and were rushed to Delray Medical Center, Borroto said. The accident closed the southbound lanes of I-95 temporarily.
