At least two people were hurt in a crash on the Atlantic City Expressway ahead of the busy Memorial Day weekend.
A box truck crashed off the roadway and into a tree around 1:50 p.m. Wednesday along the westbound expressway near milepost 33.5 in Winslow Township, New Jersey, state police said.
Two people were trapped inside the vehicle but were later rescued. The AC Expressway was closed temporarily as a medical helicopter landed on the highway.
Both victims were taken to the hospital. Officials have not yet revealed their conditions but say they suffered significant injuries.
Partial closures remained in place at the scene of the crash as cars got by investigators.
