Paint spill shuts down SB entrance to I-75 at Daniels Pkwy

FORT MYERS, Fla. – Paint was spilled on Interstate-75, causing a closure at the southbound entrance at Daniels Parkway at mile marker 131, authorities said.

Crews attempted to hose the liquid down with water but were unsuccessful, according to the Florida Highway Patrol. Another chemical must be added to the mess to have it removed, FHP said. If continued attempts fail, the road may have to be ripped up, according to FHP.

The road will be closed until further notice.
