"A Bayonne man who may have been racing with another driver crashed his car into a wrought-iron fence early yesterday morning, sending all five people in the car to the hospital, authorities said.
Ralph Bacani, 19, of Avenue E in Bayonne, was issued numerous motor vehicle violations, including summonses for reckless driving and violating the conditions of his special learner’s permit, Jersey City police spokesman Stan Eason said.
The four passengers in the car had to be extricated by Jersey City firefighters after the 4 a.m. crash on Kennedy Boulevard near Stuyvesant Avenue, reports said.
All five people were treated at the Jersey City Medical Center for injuries that were not life threatening.
Eason said that “speeding and/or racing” may have played a role in the crash, which is still under investigation.
Bacani slammed into a parked car and a parking meter before the car came to rest on a wrought-iron fence next to a wheelchair access ramp in front of a doctor’s office."
