TAMPA, Fla. (FOX 13) - Both directions of the Courtney Campbell Causeway had to be shut down Monday for several hours due to a deadly crash at Rocky Point.

The crash happened Monday morning around 10:25 a.m. One eastbound lane reopened around 2:15 p.m., but the westbound lanes remained closed until about 3:30 p.m.

All lanes have now since reopened in both directions.

Tampa police said a dump truck traveling westbound crossed over the median and into eastbound traffic, striking a vehicle head on.

The driver of the dump truck was not seriously injured, but a passenger in the car it hit has died and the driver was seriously injured.

The driver of the dump truck stayed on scene and was cooperating with police.

There's no word yet on why the dump truck crossed over the median.
