A fatal crash involving three vehicles blocked all lanes of Kanner Highway Friday morning in western Martin County.
The wreck occurred about 5:39 a.m. just east of Warfield Boulevard.

A passenger in the Sienna, Matthew Mcalilster,79, of Indiantown died at a hospital, FHP said.
The driver of the Altima sustained serious injuries and the other two drivers had minor injuries.
All lanes were blocked for about three hours but back open by 9:30 a.m.
