Monday morning drivers on Interstate 95 in North Miami-Dade either dealt with a big backup for a holiday or slid over to other north-south routes after a man was killed in a hit-and-run just south of the Golden Glades Interchange.

Florida Highway Patrol shut down several lanes of I-95 south south of the Golden Glades Interchange all morning, then all lanes around 10:45 a.m. It got reopened around 11:30 a.m.

FHP said the man was walking along the highway around 6:40 a.m. when he was hit by a passing vehicle.

Anyone who knows anything about the driver or car involved can contact FHP at *347 (FHP).
