One patient was heavily entrapped and needed to be extricated from the vehicle.
The extricated patient was transported to Ocean Medical Center in Brick with CPR in progress. He was pronounced dead at the hospital, police say.

And when we’ll have state troopers in town next week we’ll know why

First Commenter,
Road Rage from GSP that happened to end badly in Lakewood should lead to more troopers on the GSP, not Lakewood.
Let us make a friendly compromise. We would like more NJ State Troopers on the Parkway near exit 98 till exit 83. Thank you
Very Sad
why couldn’t the state troopers who are supposed to be stationed along the parkway stop this on the GSP before they got out at exit 91?
Actually, the many people who witnessed this road rage developing should have called 911 immediately. The GSP law enforcement is extremely efficient and respond promptly. I had somebody tailgating me for a few miles after I honked him. I called the cops, he was pulled over less then a minute after I called.
This is so sad. Thoughts are with the family
this is so sad 🙁
To Yuks. The solution to get rid of tailgaters is to engage your hazzard lights & take your foot off the accelerator. The tailgater will be gone in a flash. Driver safely.
