Car Flips in Point Pleasant Beach

No injuries were reported when a car flipped on its top in Point Pleasant Beach early Monday morning but it caused long delays for those driving in for the Memorial Day holiday.

Police say the vehicle was traveling south on Route 35 near Cedar Avenue around 3:30am when it crashed into not one, but two utility poles, breaking them both into pieces.  The car itself ended up upside-down on a nearby lawn.

Route 35 southbound was closed during cleanup from the accident. The right lane remained closed on Monday morning as the utility poles were replaced causing long delays for drivers heading into Point Pleasant for the Memorial Day holiday.
