Three people were hospitalized after a multi-vehicle crash near Miami Lakes’ Palmetto Expressway early Monday. The crash closed the Northwest 154th Street ramp to the southbound expressway ahead of the morning commute.

Florida Highway Patrol troopers responded just after 4:15 a.m., along with deputies from the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office and Miami-Dade Fire Rescue crews. Paramedics took the injured people to area hospitals. Their conditions were not known.

An FHP cruiser was in a small ditch at the scene, but its involvement in the crash was unclear. First responders and tow trucks were also at the site.
