Details About the Fatal Pennsauken Accident
Initial reports of a serious motor vehicle accident on Route 130 South came in to Burlington County dispatch around 3:30 PM. Police officers from Cinnaminson quickly determined that the crash was in Pennsauken on Route 130 South just past Enterprise (but prior to Hylton Road).
Emergency personnel from the Pennsauken Police Department and Pennsauken Fire and EMS responded to the wreck, which involved a car and a truck, according to video reports from multiple news agency helicopters.
Officials confirmed one fatality at the scene but issued no other comment on additional injuries. All southbound lanes were closed by Pennsauken Police and New Jersey DOT personnel while the police conducted an investigation. Two lanes northbound were closed for fire department equipment.
The accident snarled traffic for more than two hours in Pennsauken, Cinnaminson, and Maple Shade as drivers tried to exit or avoid the highway altogether during rush hour. Details about the cause of the crash have yet to be released.
