Two people died in a fiery crash along the Atlantic City Expressway Friday afternoon, according to police.
The one-car wreck on the snowy roadway snarled traffic approaching mile-marker 21 westbound near the Frank S Farley Service Plaza in Hammonton, New Jersey around 2:15 p.m.
Medics rushed two people inside the Ford Focus from the scene. New Jersey State Police said those people, a man and woman, later died. The victims have not yet been identified.
Troopers warned motorists to expect major delays as only one lane got by for hours, but police said the scene was mostly clear by 6 p.m.
Police warned all motorists to slow down saying that 132 crashes had been reported throughout the state due to snowy conditions.
