Roselle, NJ (August 28, 2026) – A collision with reported injuries was dispatched early Friday morning, August 28, near the intersection of Walnut Street and East Second Avenue.
Union County Fire and EMS reported the crash around 5:51 a.m.
Emergency crews rushed to the scene to assist those involved. At least one person was injured as a result of the accident.
It is not clear how the accident unfolded or the severity of the injuries. Authorities continue to investigate.
We hope everyone affected recovers fully.
Even when injuries aren't immediately obvious, getting checked out after a collision matters more than many people realize. Adrenaline is released during a stressful event like a crash, and it can mask pain for hours or even days.This means someone could walk away from the crash feeling fine and later discover a more serious injury once the adrenaline wears off.
Certain injuries such as whiplash, concussions, or soft tissue damage, usually don't produce noticeable symptoms right away. Without a prompt medical evaluation, these conditions can worsen over time, sometimes leading to longer recovery periods or complications that could have been caught earlier with proper imaging or a physical exam.
Beyond the medical reasons, seeking treatment quickly also creates a documented link between the crash and any injuries that surface afterward. Insurance companies frequently look for gaps between the date of a collision and the date someone first sought care, and they may use a delay to argue that an injury wasn't actually caused by the crash or wasn't serious enough to warrant treatment.
