A 2014 Kia driven south by Catherine Kozak, 35, of Montague Township in Sussex County, crossed the double yellow line just after 6:30 p.m. and struck the left front of a northbound Lexus driven by Thomas Pisano, Trooper Lawrence Peele said.

CPR follows 2-car crash

It wasn't immediately clear why the Kia went into oncoming traffic at mile marker 14.5 in northern Warren County, Peele said. Neither drugs nor alcohol are believed to be factors, the Herald reported.

Kozak suffered minor injuries and was treated at the scene, Peele said.

There was no immediate ruling on Pisano's cause and manner of death, Peele said.

Emergency personnel attempted to revive Pisano with CPR, police said Wednesday night.

The investigation, which closed the 700 block of the road near the township elementary school, continues, Peele said.

There was no indication of passengers in either vehicle, Peele said.
