FREEHOLD TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) - A retired priest and his two siblings died in New Jersey when their vehicle was rear-ended by a pickup.

Authorities say 85-year-old Antoinette Gallina died at a hospital one week after the June 4 crash in Freehold Township claimed the lives of her 81-year-old brother, the Rev. Michael Guglielmelli, and 87-year-old sister, Dolores Guglielmelli.

Authorities say the minivan they were riding in was stopped at a red light when the vehicle was hit by a pickup driven by 19-year-old Austin Janowski of Freehold Township. He was treated and released for a minor injury.



The driver of the minivan was treated and released and a fourth passenger remains hospitalized.

The cause of the crash is under investigation.
