BSO cruiser involved in crash that shut down Tamarac intersection

A Broward Sheriff’s Office cruiser was almost completely destroyed in a major crash in Tamarac late Monday night that shut down the intersection.

It happened just before midnight near Northwest 31st Avenue and West Prospect Road, just west of Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport.

Video shows the cruiser crumpled and the front airbags deployed. Another vehicle involved is flipped on its side against a pole.

A witness at a nearby 7-Eleven said he heard cars zooming through the street before the loud boom of the crash.

“Anything could happen at this time of night,” he said. “Me and the customer was checking outside to make sure if anybody was OK.”

It was not immediately clear if there were any injuries.

A tow truck picked up both vehicles at around 6:45 a.m.

NBC6 is working to learn more about what may have led to the collision.
