A 19-year-old Union City man and a 15-year-old girl were heading north on Kennedy Boulevard in North Bergen in a Honda Accord when the vehicle struck several cars parked between 18th and 26th streets and crashed into a telephone pole just after 8 a.m., Hudson County Prosecutor Esther Suarez said.
Both victims were taken by Emergency Medical Services to Jersey City Medical Center for treatment of serious but non-life-threatening injuries, Suarez said.
The crash remains under investigation by the Regional Collision Investigation Unit and the North Bergen Police Department. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Office of the Hudson County Prosecutor at 201-915-1345 or to leave an anonymous tip.
