BELLMAWR -- A motorcycle accident on Interstate 295 Thursday morning sent a Gloucester County man to the hospital, a state trooper said.
The one-vehicle accident happened shortly before 5:30 a.m. at the 26.9 milepost near exit 27, Bellmawr. The man was still on the highway when the police arrived, said Trooper Moises Martinez, the first officer on the scene.
The victim, described as being "in his mid60s," was wearing a helmet, but still sustained head injuries, Martinez said. The accident did nothing to help already snarled traffic in the area from an overnight overturned tractor trailer that spilled orange juice and diesel fuel over the highway.
