The southbound highway was closed for nearly an hour after a fawn ran across the roadway in front of Ramsey Alfa Romeo in Upper Saddle River around 7:30 a.m., Detective Capt. Edward Kane said.
The drivers of a Toyota RAV-4 and the two rigs -- one of which jack-knifed -- declined medical attention, Kane said.
And the deer made it across, he said.
Southbound traffic was detoured at Lake Street in Ramsey as all three vehicles were towed, the captain said.
A fuel spill was minimal, he said.
Joining Upper Saddle River police, firefighters and Volunteer Ambulance Corps members were Mahwah and Bergen County hazardous materials units and Ramsey police, among others.
Boyd A. Loving took the photos and contributed to this account.
