LAWRENCE (Mercer) — A dump truck ran off Route 1 and into the pumps at a gas station late Thursday morning.

Video shows the dump truck at the Shell station on Route 1 southbound at Bakers Basin Road in Lawrence Township. A worker at a nearby business told New Jersey 101.5 the dump truck hit a vehicle that was parked at a pump and crushed it.

"There's a lot going on," the worker said, describing a large number of first responders on the scene.

Lawrence police on Thursday afternoon did not respond to New Jersey 101.5's request for more information about the crash including injuries.
