A teen driving a 2009 Infinity G37 was heading east on Cedarbridge Avenue approaching the intersection of Clover Street at a high rate of speed and was trying to navigate around another vehicle stopped and trying to turn in the lefthand lane around 9:30 p.m., the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office said.

That's when the G37 driver lost control, left the roadway, struck a house and overturned, Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer said.

The backseat rear passenger, a juvenile, was ejected from the car and pronounced dead at the scene. The teenage operator and an 18-year-old passenger were taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune.

They were reportedly in stable condition as of Monday.

The Ocean County Vehicular Homicide Unit, Lakewood Township Police Department and the Ocean County Sheriff’s Office Crime Scene Investigation Unit were investigating.

One person who was in the house was also reportedly injured, according to ABC7.
