Boy, 7, Killed in Freehold Car Crash; Same Road Where 3 People Were Killed in Tragic Accident in August

A young child was killed Saturday night after a two-vehicle collision on Kozloski Road in Freehold, authorities said.

The accident occurred at approximately 8:10 p.m. in the area of Route 33 Business and Center Street in Freehold, according to Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Office spokesman Charles Webster.

A Honda CR-V, driven by Freehold resident Michael Miranda, 23, became overturned, and a Toyota sedan driven by Juliana Alcaraz, 24, of Howell, was also involved in the accident. The Honda and Toyota were the only vehicles involved but details about what led to the accident were unavailable as of Sunday. Webster said and accident investigation was currently underway, with charges pending.

Tragically, Alcaraz’s 7-year-old son was a passenger in her vehicle and was killed in the accident. Webster was unable to release his name, and did not have information regarding any possible injuries sustained by the other accident victims.

The fatal accident was on the same road where three people, including a young couple who were new parents, were killed and a fourth victim critically injured on August 19.
