When firefighters arrived, no one was in the tractor-trailer, and no injuries were reported. No other vehicles were involved.
Martin County Sheriff’s deputies and Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) were also on scene. Northbound lanes were blocked off temporarily, but reopened after the area was clear.

⚠️NORTHEAST JENSEN BEACH BOULEVARD CLOSED AS MCFR HAZMAT TEAM INVESTIGATES GAS LEAK⚠️
Multiple Martin County Fire Rescue units are responding to a gas leak near the Dunkin’ Donuts in the 1600 block of N.E. Jensen Beach Boulevard.
Upon arrival, firefighters learned that an excavator hit a gas line on the Dunkin’ Donuts property. The 911 caller stated that they could hear and smell the leak. All occupants of the coffee shop have been evacuated, and there are no reported injuries at this time. The Martin County Sheriff’s Office and Stuart Fire Rescue are also on scene.
As firefighters work to mitigate this leak, Jensen Beach Boulevard from Northeast Skyline Drive to Northeast Highland Avenue will remain closed. Northeast Sunview Terrace is being used as a detour. Please seek alternate routes and plan accordingly.

All Interstate 95 northbound lanes are back open following a fatal crash that multiple Martin County Fire Rescue units responded to early Monday morning.
Units were dispatched just before 3:40 a.m. near the 91 mile-marker and Palm Beach/Martin County line on Interstate 95 northbound.
Upon arrival, firefighters found a sedan lodged underneath the back end of a tractor-trailer. The back end of the tractor-trailer and the sedan were engulfed in flames. Crews immediately went to work, quickly bringing the fire under control and initiating an extrication effort to reach the driver of the sedan. Despite their efforts, the driver had already succumbed to their injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.
MCFR and multiple emergency crews worked to clear the wreckage for several hours including the Martin County Sheriff’s Office, Palm Beach County Fire Rescue and Florida Highway Patrol (FHP).

Today, we reflect on the life and service of Firefighter-Paramedic Scott Neumann. Seven years ago, he passed away after returning home from his shift at Station 16. He was 52.
Scott dedicated nearly two decades of service to Martin County Fire Rescue and was a valued member of our HAZMAT team. He was posthumously awarded the rank of Captain.
Scott’s commitment to serving Martin County left a lasting impact on our department and the community. His legacy lives on through his family and his daughter, Alicia, who’s following in her father’s footsteps serving as a Firefighter/EMT with our department.
We carry Scott’s memory with us, honor his service and will always remember his devotion to helping others.
