LAKEHURST – A serious crash near the Lakehurst Circle on Route 70 has injured drivers, caused a local power outage, and caused traffic to jam up for miles.

  Police issued a warning to find an alternate route for the next few hours because the crash will take time to clear and investigate.

  It is unknown what caused the crash, or the condition of those involved, but reports state that two patients were being flown to local hospitals.

One vehicle was seen flipped onto its roof near a utility pole that was tilting over.
