EHT Man Killed in Early Morning Crash on Malaga Road
A man from Egg Harbor Township was killed early Wednesday morning in a crash in Hamilton Township.
Hamilton Township Police responded to the intersection of Malaga and Jackson Roads around 1AM Wednesday morning where they found a car driven by 32-year-old Gregory Gellien, Jr., of Egg Harbor Township had struck a tree. When officers arrived, they found Gellien, Jr., trapped in his car and suffering from serious injuries. Local fire crews extracted the driver and he was taken to ARMC-City where he died.
A preliminary investigation revealed the vehicle was traveling southbound on Malaga Road and attempting to make a right turn onto Jackson Road when the driver lost control, left the road, and hit a tree.
