East Rutherford NJ, early on Sunday, a tragic incident occurred as a 26-year-old man from Summit lost his life in a collision. The crash occurred when his pickup truck collided with a toll plaza on the New Jersey Turnpike.

State troopers were swiftly on the scene, responding to the crash just before 4 a.m. near exit 16W in East Rutherford, according to state police Sgt. Charles Marchan.
