HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla — Northbound I-75 is back open after a four-vehicle fatal crash in Hillsborough County.

The Florida Highway Patrol said that one person reportedly died.

All northbound lanes of I-75 were closed at the 264-milepost Saturday afternoon but have reopened.

“This is just an insult.”

Florida’s new budget includes millions of dollars in pay raises for Florida Highway Patrol troopers after the state agency has struggled to fill positions and retain troopers. But an FHP advocate says the raises don’t go far enough.
