A 65-year-old Miami man died in an Alligator Alley crash Monday. Authorities are not ruling out it could have been caused by a medical episode.
The wreck happened just after 7:15 a.m. Monday along Alligator Alley, at the 97-mile marker, south of Naples, according to a Florida Highway Patrol incident report.
Troopers were dispatched Monday morning to the scene of the single-vehicle crash of a Toyota Corolla.
In the crash, troopers said, a Toyota Corolla traveled off the road, possibly caused by a medical episode. After the car veered off the road, it entered the median and collided with a dirt pile related to a construction site.
