Sunday morning traffic in Miami’s Little Havana turned into a headache for drivers after a multi-vehicle crash at Southwest 10th Avenue and Third Street in the Riverside section. The collision left three cars banged up and brought a sizable police and fire-rescue presence to the intersection.

According to Local 10, Miami police officers and fire-rescue crews responded to the scene and at least three vehicles were damaged. Local 10 described the situation as a developing incident and did not immediately report whether anyone was injured or what might have caused the crash.

Crash patterns across the county

Miami-Dade County regularly lands near the top of Florida’s list for reported crashes, a trend that shows up in the state’s interactive crash data tools. The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles crash dashboard offers county-by-county numbers and trend maps for collisions and traffic fatalities.

Little Havana's safety record

County planning documents have previously flagged parts of Little Havana, including the Riverside area, for elevated pedestrian crash rates, which can complicate how quickly streets clear and services recover after a collision. Miami-Dade County records show the neighborhood has been singled out for targeted safety work in earlier studies.

Authorities had not released additional details about injuries or a possible cause at the time of Local 10’s reporting, which the station labeled a developing story. Hoodline will continue to track official updates from city and state agencies and will share new information as it becomes available.
