4 Fatal Victims ID'd In Garden State Parkway Crash In Toms River

More details were released as police identified the four victims killed in a two-vehicle collision on the Garden State Parkway on Wednesday morning, police said.

The two-car Toms River crash killed Kevin Quispe-Prieto, 21, of Beachwood and Jimmy Quispe-Prieto, 23, Victor Lugo, 24, and Robert Ordenana, 23, all of Lakewood, police said.

The crash happened at 2:50 a.m. when troopers responded to a report of a crash involving a sedan and a tanker truck on the southbound Garden State Parkway at milepost 81.5, authorities said.

Based on the preliminary investigation, Quispe-Prieto was driving an Infiniti G37 sedan in the right lane when he struck the rear of the truck, police said.

As a result of the collision, all four occupants sustained fatal injuries and were pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the truck sustained minor non-life-threatening injuries.

The cause of the crash is still under investigation.

Video shows that the car appeared to strike the truck in its rear and was wedged under the vehicle.

The State Police initially reported that the accident happened in Berkeley Township. The crash actually happened just north of there, in Toms River.

The right lane was closed for hours after the crash.

Here are videos of the scene:
