The crash occurred at approximately 4:17 p.m. on Friday, January 23, 2026, on I-95 southbound near mile marker 232 in Mims, prompting a full closure of the southbound lanes for several hours as troopers investigated the scene.

According to Florida Highway Patrol, a 2011 Harley-Davidson motorcycle was traveling southbound on I-95 when it ran off the roadway to the right onto the outside shoulder and into the wooded area. As a result of the crash, the 72-year-old male driver from Edgewater was pronounced deceased at the scene.

The initial alert issued earlier in the evening indicated that the crash involved a motorcycle and resulted in at least one confirmed fatality, with southbound traffic on I-95 blocked while troopers worked the scene. A full crash report was later issued once additional details became available.

The crash remains under active investigation by Florida Highway Patrol Troop D.
