An investigation is underway in Pine Hill, Camden County after a driver, reportedly taken off-guard by this morning's icy road ways, crashed into a New Jersey Transit bus. 

Authorities believe black ice is likely to blame for the crash that killed a 27-year old woman on W. Brand Road approximately 7 a.m. . Her minivan reportedly spun out of control before it crashed into a Philadelphia-bound New Jersey Transit bus, according to 6abc.com.

The identity of the woman, family members say is from El Salvador, has not been released.

One pasenger in the SUV was seriously injured. More than a dozen people riding on the bus were taken to area hospitals with non-threatening injuries.  The bus driver was also uninjured.

 

 

Black ice was the cause of multiple accidents that took place all over South Jersey this morning.
