The Chevy pickup driven by Jaquina Sharron Davis, a 46-year-old repeat drug offender from Paterson, left the roadway and then re-entered it, crashing into a Subaru, at milepost 66 just after 8:30 p.m. Saturday, State Police Sgt. Lawrence Peele said.

The Subaru, in turn, hit a Honda, he said.

Davis, who was carrying heroin and crack, bailed out and ran, the sergeant said.

The juvenile, meanwhile, was taken to the hospital, along with both occupants of the Honda.

Both the Honda and the Subaru were totaled, witnesses said.

The eastbound highway remained closed while State Police investigated and the wreckage was cleared.

Davis remained held Monday in the Bergen County Jail, charged with:

  • Assault by auto;
  • Child endangerment;
  • Driving under the influence of drugs with a juvenile in the vehicle;
  • Giving a false report to police;
  • Drug possession;
  • Obstruction.

She was also wanted on warrants out of Clifton and Passaic County, records show.
