Driver Hospitalized After Italian Food Delivery Truck Destroys Traffic Light In Paramus

The driver of a refrigerated truck was hospitalized following a morning crash that uprooted a traffic light in Paramus.

The victim was driving for Anacapri Foods in Cranford, which supplies pizzerias and restaurants, when he apparently suffered a medical episode on South Farview Avenue shortly before 9:30 a.m., responders at the scene said.

The extent of his injuries couldn’t immediately be determined.

Farview Avenue was closed in both directions near Paramus Fire Company 4 while Belfi’s Towing and a local electrical company worked to remove the traffic light.

The crash severely damaged the pole and the truck on Farview Avenue in Paramus.
