• Pedestrian struck, killed outside N.J. hospital is ID'd (nj.com subscription) — A 70-year-old Dover woman, Andrea Ramos, died after being struck by a vehicle on Pocono Road outside Saint Clare's Denville Hospital last Wednesday evening. Authorities say no charges have been filed against the driver so far, and friends have launched an online fundraiser remembering Ramos as a devoted mother and caring community member.
