On September 17, shortly after midnight, Police were monitoring traffic in the construction zone at Route 8 and Hardies Road. A vehicle came off of E. Hardies Rd., continued across Route 8, and despite a fully marked Hampton Township patrol vehicle with emergency lights activated, blocking the intersection along with orange safety cones, as well as construction vehicles and the active construction zone that was currently in progress closing off the roadway, the vehicle continued through the intersection, around the blockades, and drove into the active construction zone on West Hardies Road. The driver was found to be under the influence of alcohol and was placed under arrest. Criminal charges are pending.
