NEWARK -- Three people were hospitalized Saturday night after a three-car crash in Newark.
A driver going southbound on Mount Prospect Avenue told Newark Police that the driver of the car behind her lost control and struck her vehicle, Newark Police Sgt. Ronald Glover said.
The car then flipped over into oncoming traffic and struck another vehicle coming north on Mount Prospect Avenue, Glover said. Rescue crews had to remove the two occupants of the third vehicle using special equipment. They and the driver of the vehicle that flipped were sent to University Hospital for non-life threatening injuries.
Police are investigating the accident, Glover said. Summonses have not been issued.
