Toms River Woman Suffers Head Injury in Lakehurst Circle Crash

A Toms River woman was taken to the hospital following an early morning crash Thursday at the Lakehurst Circle, police said. 

Vineland resident Ryan M. Marshall was driving a 2008 Hyundai when police allege that failed to yield at the circle where Routes 70 and 37 meet and struck a 2005 Toyota driven by Patricia Gonzalez of Toms River at about 6:45 a.m., said Sgt. Ronald Heinzman. 

The Lakehurst First Aid Squad responded to the scene and transported Gonzalez to Community Medical Center in Toms River with a head injury.

Marshall was issued summonses for failure to yield, having an unregistered vehicle and having an uninsured vehicle, according to Heinzman. 

The eastbound lane of Route 70 was closed for about 45 minutes as emergency responders tended to the scene. Officers Matthew Kline and Stephen Gallo are investigating the crash, Heinzman said. 

In addition to Heinzman, Officer Raymond Vosseller and members of the Lakehurst Volunteer Fire Department assisted at the scene.
