No serious injuries were immediately reported when a Dodge RAM pickup truck t-boned a GMC Yukon at the corner of Broadway and Irvington Street, next to the NJ Transit tracks, shortly after 8:30 a.m. Saturday, June 15.

Westwood police and firefighters immediately responded and got everyone involved out OK, including a visibly upset boy who was in the SUV, witnesses said.

All refused medical aid, officers at the scene said.

EMS tended to three occupants of the overturned full-size SUV, which bore New York license plates.

It wasn't immediately clear which vehicle ran the traffic light at that corner.

Witnesses said the pickup apparently was traveling with another.

Emerson Towing righted the SUV and removed both vehicles. An investigation was continuing.
