Two Flown To Area Hospital In Motor Vehicle Accident On Veterans Boulevard

Two people were airlifted to Jersey Shore University Medical Center, Neptune, following a three-vehicle accident at the corner of Veterans and Eastern Boulevards Sunday night.

"It's precautionary on both," said Lieutenant James Blair, head of the police department's traffic safety division. "It doesn't appear to be anything life threatening."

Blair did not identify any of those involved in the accident due to the fact that some were 17 years old and family members of those involved had not yet been notified.

The accident occurred just after 8:30 p.m.

"It appears two cars went through the stop sign...slid through" Blair said, stressing that the accident is still under investigation.

Shattered glass was strewn throughout the intersection. There were no signs of skid marks.

Bayville First Aid and the Bayville Fire Company responded to the accident along with Lacey Township EMS, Blair said.

Berkeley Patch will update as more information becomes available.
