1 hospitalized, NB lanes of I-95 in Boca Raton shut down following possible shooting - WSVN 7News | Miami News, Weather, Sports | Fort Lauderdale

A shooting incident on Interstate 95 near Boca Raton has left a person hospitalized and brought traffic to a standstill. The northbound lanes of the highway have been shut down following the apparent attack, with officials diverting all traffic onto Hillsboro Boulevard.

Eyewitnesses report seeing a box truck parked on the side of the road with a black SUV stopped further down the road. One window of the SUV appears to be shot out, prompting an investigation by police. The Boca Raton Fire Rescue team has confirmed that one person was transported to a local hospital in connection with the incident.

As authorities continue to probe the circumstances surrounding the shooting, drivers are being forced to take detours away from the affected area. The roadblocks have caused significant congestion on the highway, adding to the frustration of commuters already facing traffic woes during peak hours.

The identity and condition of the person injured remain unknown for now. As officials work to piece together what happened, residents and motorists in the area are being advised to exercise caution when traveling through the region until further notice.
 
This is super frustrating 🤯. I mean, can't you just stop and shoot someone on a highway without messing up everyone's day? I'm sure it's not ideal for commuters, but shutting down the whole northbound lane is way excessive. Like, I get that safety first and all, but come on! Hillsboro Boulevard is probably going to be a nightmare too with all the diverted traffic.

And what really gets me is how slowly things are moving 🕰️. I'm sure the police and fire department are doing their thing, but it's like they're just waiting for everyone else to catch up or something. Can't they just give us an update on the victim's condition or something? We need some clarity here.

It's also interesting to see how this is going to affect traffic in the area... I was actually planning on heading out to Boca Raton today and now my plans are totally derailed 😩. Guess I'll have to find another way to get there tomorrow.
 
Ugh, just heard about this on my morning commute 🚗😬... traffic's a nightmare out here! Can't even get to work on time with all these roadblocks. I hope the person who got shot is okay, but it's so frustrating for people like me who are stuck in traffic. I feel bad for the commuters who have to take detours and deal with the chaos. It's just one of those days where everything seems to be going wrong, right? 🤦‍♂️ And what was that box truck doing on the side of the road again? Was it just parked there or did something weird happen? 🤔
 
Omg this is so scary! 🤕 I was checking social media when I saw the news about that shooting on Interstate 95. It's crazy how one wrong move can lead to chaos on our roads. The whole highway being shut down is just not fair, especially during peak hours when people are already stressed out trying to get to work or school.

I feel bad for that person who got shot and is now in the hospital 🤞. Hopefully they'll make a full recovery soon! And I hope the police can figure out what happened and bring some justice to whoever was involved.

It's just so frustrating when things like this happen, but at least people are being cautious and looking out for each other. We should all be like that anyway, you know? Let's spread some positivity and good vibes instead of negativity! 🌞💖
 
Ugh, can't believe this is happening on I-95 🤦‍♂️. It's like, you're already dealing with traffic congestion during peak hours, and then BAM! This incident happens... it's just so frustrating for everyone involved 😩. And the fact that the northbound lanes are closed and drivers have to take detours is just a nightmare. I mean, can't they just figure out what happened and lift the roadblocks already? 🤯 The poor guy who got shot, I hope he's gonna be okay... but still, this is just another day when you feel like traffic in SoCal (or wherever this is) is just getting worse and worse 🚗😡.
 
😒 what's with all these roadblocks? i mean, i get that people got hurt but can't they just let traffic go a bit? like, Boca Raton is already crazy busy anyway... 🚗🤯 and now you're shutting down whole sections of the highway? it's gonna take forever to get anywhere. and what's with the box truck and SUV thing? some random cars got caught in the middle because of one guy's gunplay... just don't get me started 😡.
