The driver was killed and the vehicle was all but incinerated after the sedan veered off the northbound highway and rear-ended one of the large box trucks parked in the lot at Carlstadt Ice.
Authorities have identified the driver who died in a fatal car crash on Route 17 in Carlstadt, New Jersey. The incident occurred on Thursday, April 13, when a 2009 Toyota Camry driven by Ibrahim S. Campbell, 19, of Hackensack, crashed into the back of a vacant ice truck and burst into flames. According to Police Sgt John Cleary, Campbell and his vehicle were almost completely incinerated in the accident. There were no other occupants in the car and no skid marks were found at the scene.
"The back bumper of the truck was almost in the trunk," said one responder. The fire was extinguished by borough firefighters. The Bergen County Prosecutor's Fatal Accident Investigations Unit and the Bergen County Sheriff's Bureau of Criminal Identification were both summoned to the scene to collect evidence. The county Medical Examiner's Office took the body.
The right lane north of Paterson Plank Road was closed until just before Moonachie Avenue while the wreckage was removed and investigations were carried out. Notifications have been made to Campbell's family.
