New Jersey Turnpike cleared after van crash

Wednesday, January 18, 2012

An overturned cargo van blocked two lanes of the northbound New Jersey Turnpike Wednesday morning.

The accident happened just before 8:00 a.m. at mile post 67.5, which is just south of Exit 8 in East Windsor Township, Mercer County.

The accident is still under investigation, but preliminary reports say the vehicle may have struck a piece of construction equipment before losing control.

The driver suffered minor injuries and was taken to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in Hamilton for treatment.
