BERKELEY — Two drivers were hospitalized, including one flown by medical helicopter, after a three-vehicle collision at Forest Hills Parkway and Grand Central Parkway on Nov. 9, police said.
Officers responded to the intersection at 4:54 p.m. Investigators determined that an eastbound Subaru Crosstrek was turning left from Forest Hills Parkway onto Grand Central Parkway when it collided with a westbound Ford Escape.
The impact spun the Subaru into a Ford Fusion that was stopped at the traffic light in the eastbound lane of Forest Hills Parkway, police said.
The Subaru’s driver was flown to Jersey Shore University Medical Center. Berkeley Township EMS took the Ford Escape’s driver to the same hospital. Police did not release the drivers’ names or describe the severity of their injuries.
No injuries were reported among the Ford Fusion’s occupants.
Both the Subaru and Ford Escape sustained extensive damage and were removed by Accurate Towing. The Fusion had minor damage, and its driver drove it from the scene.
Authorities temporarily closed the westbound lane of Forest Hills Parkway while emergency crews worked at the intersection. Beachwood police, Berkeley Township EMS, Bayville Volunteer Fire Company and RWJBarnabas paramedics assisted. Ocean County crime scene investigators also responded to help document the crash.
The investigation remains open, and traffic summonses are pending, police said.
