JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- A man died in an alcohol-related crash on J. Turner Butler Boulevard that snarled traffic for hours Thursday evening.

The victim has been identified as 47-year-old Darryl Early of Avondale, Louisiana.

According to a Florida Highway Patrol report, a 2000 Chevy Silverado was stopped behind other vehicles on JTB in the outside lane, waiting to exit at Hodges Boulevard.

A 2001 Jaguar was stopped behind the Silverado and a Toyota 4-Runner was stopped behind the Jaguar.

Dann Lute, 53, was driving a Ford F-250 that hit the back of the 4-Runner. The 4-Runner rolled over and hit the rear of the Jaguar, which then hit the Silverado.

Early was driving the 4-Runner.

FHP believes alcohol was a factor and charges are pending.
