Their payments at all of the toll plaza, so hopefully that will ease some of the congestion there. A good day to fly. We have check with philly international in, fog delays and in delays at the airport, mike and alex, back over to you. We have an interesting story out of feltonville and we are trying to piece this together. Two teens are dead and another is in the hospital after being involved in the late night crash. Lets get to steve keeley who joins us from feltonville, steve. Reporter hear bee go mike, were in the crosswalk of front street and you can see broken glass here where these vehicles ended up. It has been cleared and boulevard is back opened by 4 00 a. M. But two more young lives lost on this death way, two teenage passengers in a car driven by a third teen who survived. You can see in our video how bad it was. This is where car ended up wrapped around the pole here at front street on the outer lanes. It happened just past midnight on the boulevard, and the teenage driver, 18 years old survived, and was not hurt enough where he was even unconscious. So talking to police, paramedics here and he is the brother, younger brother of the 19 yearold man killed in the accident. They dont even know where the 19 yearold was sitting but they found a 17 yearold girl the other victim in this case who was killed, she was in the back seat, and the back seat may have taken the brunt of this accident where it ended up wrapped around the pole. Looking at the video. Other vehicle you see is a ford suv, that crashed somewhere, somehow, with this car which is believed to be a hyundai at some point before they hit the front street intersection obviously and you can tell by that car and the damage to it that speed definitely a factor in this. This intersection is light controlled but at this time were not certain who had the red light or who had the green light. Reporter problem with that is this is one of the intersections without a red light camera, so they will try to see if there is any surveillance on the businesses here as we come back, if you look across all 12 lanes of this road you can see neon from a couple businesses over on that side of the street and they are obviously talking to the other driver as well but you can tell when you go through a light here if somebody was on front street going through a light chances of you going through a light here and surviving 12 lanes of traffic the in the middle of the night are not done. It is usually people at the boulevard that are going through the light and i can tell you alex and mike we drove through this scene over in trenton. We came down quite away come north and all vehicles in front of us we were going through light after light and these people have no inclination to put their brakes on when light turns yellow. We saw probably 55 people go through red lights on the way to the corn they are morning. It happened all the time. How often have we said this is one of the worst boulevards in america. Always so many accidents there. Why dont we do something about it . I dont know. Well, homicide detectives in wynfield are investigating the sudden death of a teenage boy. This is an odd one we are trying to also piece together. Found dead inside of the school, dave. Yes. Reporter very bizarre case. Police are officially calling it a sudden death at this point but we can tell you that the 17 yearold boy has been found dead at Wordsworth Academy in wynfield heights. Police were called to the 3900 block of ford road just before 11 00 oclock last night to investigate. Now additional reports a altercation with the staffer before this situation unfolded. According to the web site, wordsworth youth have emotional behavioral and academic challenges. A 17 yearold found dead at the school here, the call coming in before 11 00 oclock last night, police have been working this case. I just got off the phone with homicide detectives and they have no new updates at this time but there was some sort of altercation with the staff member were this death took place so we are still trying to put all this together or keeping in touch with the homicide detectives this morning. Keep working on it. Now to fox chase. Where an 18 yearold man is in the hospital after being injured in the the hit and run accident, it happened just before 9 30 last night at intersection of the verree road and rhawn street. Officials say victim jumped on the back of the car. That car did not stop before crashing in the tree and a pole. Right now police are looking for that vehicle and its driver. Also new one person was killed while walk ago long interstate 295 in mount laurel. It happened just after 11 30 at exit number 36, southbound lanes were closed while new Jersey State Police investigated the accident. No word as to what happened or any information about the victim. Back to Chris Christie new developments this morning in the bridge gate scandal, actually yesterday. A new jersey judge is letting a misconduct complaint proceed against governor christie over the lane closures around the George Washington bridge in 203. A north jersey activist filed a complaint against christie in a fort lee court, fort lee, new jersey. The judge found probable cause for the complaint to move forward. Theberger county prosecutor will determine if an indictment will follow. It looks like it will. Governor christie has denied any role in the scandal and his critics have been quick to pounds on this, governors spokesperson says an appeal is immediately underway, and some in trenton believe that the Bergen County prosecutor should step aside because governor Chris Christie appointed him in the first place. Now to the latest to the republican president ial nominee donald trump, he is lashing out at female accusers.
