While the details surrounding the incident are still sketchy, it is understood that the stretch of the route remained an active crime scene by mid-morning. 

"There are a lot of police on scene and a lot of security companies because they are tracking the suspect in the sugar cane,” said IPSS Medical Rescue's Samantha Meyrick.

She says medics returned to the scene a short while later to treat a pedestrian who was hit by a vehicle. 

The driver was apparently trying to get past in the emergency lane.

"They did treat the pedestrian who was in a serious condition. He had multiple fractures, so that also caused more traffic backup, but we left the scene with the patient."
