FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Troopers say there are injuries in a rollover crash Thursday in the southbound lanes of Interstate 75 near the Luckett Road exit.

The crash happened near mile marker 139 in Lee County, past the exit for State Road 80/Palm Beach Boulevard.

Early reports indicate that a while pickup truck appeared to be headed southbound when it rolled over into the median and onto the guardrail of the northbound lanes.
