Baby survives crash that kills 4

ELK TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) - September 12, 2008

State Police say 18-year-old Jon Nordberg of Pilesgrove drove a Honda Accord off the roadway on Route 55 in Elk Township and into the back of a parked street sweeper Thursday.

Nordberg died, along with 17-year-old Rhonda Giorno; 19-year-old Matthew Funk and 23-year-old Shaheem Hamilton.

A 2-month-old girl in the car survived with only minor injuries. The baby's address was the same as Nordberg and Giorno's.

State police also say the rear rotors of a state helicopter at the scene clipped the roof of an ambulance at the scene. That did not cause any injuries or severe damage.
