4 Relatives, Neighbors Die in Gloucester Township Car Crash

"We're looking for anybody that might have seen or know what the cause of the crash was that could help us."

Four people were killed in a head-on collision in Gloucester Township, New Jersey, Sunday evening, police said.

Two vehicles - both Toyota Camrys - collided on Sicklerville Road and Dunlin Way around shortly before 5 p.m.

"We heard a loud sound," Clinton Thompson, who lives near where the crash occurred, said. "Something like a transformer blowing. So, we came out to see what was going on."

One car was driven by 53-year-old Richard Mason of Winslow Township. He died after being transported to a local hospital. 

Traveling in the second car were five relatives, three of which died, including 43-year-old Panagioti Ramoundos, 80-year-old Anastasia Ramoundos and 77-year-old Demetrious Ramoundos

Betty Kalogridis, 74, and Jack Kalogridis, 59, are both in critical but stable condition, police said.

Three of the deceased were relatives traveling together. The occupants of both cars were neighbors, but police could not confirm if they lived next door to each other or merely on the same street. 

"It's terrifying," Thompson said. "I got a kid that's getting ready to go on the streets to drive." 

Police are investigating what caused the crashed and any possible contributing factors, including road and street conditions.
