A three-vehicle crash led police to detour traffic around a key Red Bank intersection late Wednesday afternoon.
According to police Captain Mike Frazee, the accident occurred around 5 p.m. on Newman Springs Road just west of Broad Street.
Two people sustained minor injuries and were taken to Riverview Medical Center, Frazee told redbankgreen.
In addition, a JCP&L utility pole was struck and damaged but did not fall, he said.
“Power lines are currently down and JCP&L is on location,” Frazee said at 5:45 p.m.
Newman Springs Road will be closed in the vicinity of Broad Street until further notice, he said.
