LINDEN, NJ — A Piscataway man is now charged with vehicular homicide for the deaths of two passengers in his car when he got into an accident in Linden in October 2024.

Devon Scuccimarri, 28, was arrested April 10 and charged with two counts of second-degree vehicular homicide, announced Union County Prosecutor William Daniel and Linden Police Chief David Hart.

The crash happened at 3:00 a.m. October 5, 2024, at the intersection of South Stiles Street and Rts. 1&9 in Linden.

Jones later died at the hospital.
