Three people died in a multi-vehicle crash in New Jersey that was apparently caused by a driver under the influence of drugs, sources said.
The driver in a multi-vehicle crash that killed three people has been charged with aggravated manslaughter and driving while intoxicated among several other charges. The victims’ family members are now trying to come to grips with their losses. The crash happened just before 9 a.m. in the northbound lanes of Route 23, at New York Avenue, in Wayne Tuesday. Sources tell Eyewitness News that the driver of a Honda Pilot, 29-year-old Jason Vanderee, had overdosed, lost control of his car, and crashed into a Camaro carrying a father and his son. A Nissan Rogue was also hit, with the debris from those cars damaging several cars in the Wayne Mazda lot.
