There was a fatal accident on the Garden State Parkway Friday night near Little Egg Harbor.

The crash, reportedly involving two vehicles, happened approximately 9 p.m. on Garden State Parkway South just before Exit 58 for Little Egg Harbor/Tuckerton, according to 6abc.com.

The southbound lanes appeared littered with debris from the accident, with what looks like a bright blue SUV upside down on its roof across from a light-colored sedan. The two drivers were killed.

The parkway was reportedly shut down approaching the crash for several hours with motorists being detoured off as First Responders tended to the scene.
