Gunfire That Leads to an Accident

When they arrived, officers noted one of those vehicles was struck by gunfire. The driver of that vehicle suffered a gunshot wound and was taken to Cooper University Hospital. That driver died about an hour later. Six other people in the other vehicles sustained minor injuries in the crash.
It is unclear what caused the accident. Police are still trying to locate the other driver of the unoccupied vehicle and the perpetrator. They are also asking the public to report any information they have.
