A stolen car slammed into an ambulance along a busy South Jersey road Monday morning leaving the car driver dead and two medics hurt.
The wreck closed the S White Horse Pike (U.S. Route 30) at Evesham Avenue East in Magnolia, Camden County around 5:30 a.m.
Crews cut the roof off the sedan to extract the driver. Medics rushed the driver to the hospital where doctors pronounced him dead.
An investigation revealed the sedan appeared to speeding westbound on Route 30 when it crossed the double yellow lines and slid sideways into the ambulance.
Two people in the front of the ambulance suffered minor injuries and had no patients on board at the time, said Magnolia Police.
Sayreville Police earlier reported the sedan stolen, said investigators.
The roadway remained closed for two hours during the crash.
