Crash at Northwest 54th Street and Northwest 23rd Avenue sends three to hospitals

Three people, including a pedestrian, were taken to local hospitals Thursday after a collision at an intersection in northwest Miami-Dade, authorities said. The crash occurred around 11 a.m. in the Brownsville area near Northwest 54th Street and Northwest 23rd Avenue.

Investigators said two vehicles collided in the intersection and that the impact redirected one of the vehicles, which then struck a pedestrian. Emergency crews transported the pedestrian and both drivers to hospitals for treatment.

Who was injured and what is known about their conditions

Officials identified the pedestrian as a woman. The drivers of the two vehicles were described as a man and a woman. All three were reported hospitalized in stable condition. Authorities did not immediately release names, ages, or additional medical details.

The incident disrupted traffic as first responders secured the scene and investigators assessed damage patterns and roadway conditions. Aerial video from above the intersection showed two heavily damaged vehicles and scattered debris across the roadway, including a detached wheel.

What investigators will likely examine next

The crash remained under investigation Thursday afternoon. In cases involving a secondary impact with a pedestrian after an initial vehicle-to-vehicle collision, investigators typically work to establish the sequence of events at the intersection and determine whether any contributing factors were present.

• Right-of-way and traffic control at the intersection at the time of the crash
• Vehicle speed and points of impact
• Driver visibility, potential distractions, and any impairment indicators
• Evidence on the roadway, including debris fields and tire marks

Authorities said one vehicle was redirected after the collision and struck a pedestrian, sending three people to the hospital.

What residents should expect

No timeline was provided for the completion of the investigation or for any potential enforcement action. Officials urged motorists to remain attentive around busy intersections and to expect intermittent delays when crashes occur as emergency response and investigative work continues.
