A small plane has crashed on I-75/US-27 in Broward County just north of Griffin Road.
One person was being airlifted to a hospital as a trauma alert, according to the Broward Sheriff's Office.
The Piper fixed wing multi-engine plane is owned by the Spohrer & Dodd Aviation LLC company based out of Jacksonville. The firm is not yet commenting on the crash.
Rescue units are responding to the scene.
Sky 10 was flying to another scene when the pilot spotted the downed plane in the Everglades.
The crash occurred near U.S. Highway 27.
The pilot was still inside the cockpit and appeared to be injured.
Sky 10 arrived before paramedics got there.
Local 10 News engineer Juan Rodriguez just happened to be on Sky 10 at the time, so the helicopter landed briefly so that Rodriguez could help the pilot.
Firefighters arrived a short time later and were working to help the pilot.
