EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP – Three people who were entrapped in the car they were traveling in after it was struck by another vehicle and overturned were able to “walk away” from the Sunday Feb. 10 crash, thanks to responders, according to fire department officials.

 The accident occurred at the intersection of Zion and Old Zion Roads in the Bargaintown section of the township when the car was hit and flipped on its side after striking a fire hydrant.
