DELRAY BEACH, Fla. — A piece of metal flew off a tow truck crashing through the windshield of another truck Tuesday afternoon.
The crash happened just after 3:30 p.m along the northbound lanes of Interstate 95, about one-and-a-half-mile south of Woolbright Road.

The driver of the Ford, a 64-year-old Hispanic man, suffered minor injuries from the shattered glass.
"He is lucky to be alive," said Delray Beach Fire Rescue Battalion Chief Todd Lynch.
