A vehicle crash with injuries snarled traffic at the intersection of County Road 905 and Gulfstream Drive in Key Largo on Easter Sunday afternoon, prompting Florida Highway Patrol to close the roadway and urge drivers to find alternate routes.

The incident was reported at approximately 1:37 p.m. on April 5, with FHP units responding to manage the scene and investigate the circumstances of the collision. The number of vehicles involved and the severity of the injuries were not immediately confirmed.

The timing compounded the disruption. CR-905, the Card Sound Road corridor running through North Key Largo, carries a heavy volume of holiday weekend traffic, with visitors and residents moving through Monroe County during one of the busiest travel periods of the year. An Easter Sunday afternoon closure on that stretch put additional strain on an already congested road network.

Drivers in the area were advised to avoid the CR-905 and Gulfstream Drive intersection and seek alternate routes while FHP worked the scene.
