A man was killed in a five-vehicle crash on Route 9 in Sayreville on Thursday morning, authorities said.
Sayreville police confirmed Friday morning there was a fatality and injuries in the 5:45 a.m. crash involving a flatbed trailer and a dump truck, but declined to offer additional information, citing the ongoing investigation.
The crash took place at the foot of the Edison Bridge spanning the Raritan River between Woodbridge and Sayreville, News 12 New Jersey said. A southbound construction trailer broke off the truck hauling it, the cable news station said.
Route 9 was closed for hours, with the northbound side opening first and the highway fully re-opening at 1:30 p.m., police said.
