NJ State Police are investigating a shooting incident that claimed the life of a male on the Garden State Parkway Tuesday.
Early morning gunfire erupted in the highway's northbound lanes near exit 137 in Cranford shortly before 3:45 a.m.
When police arrived at the scene, they closed the entrance ramp after Troopers located the victim alone in a car, suffering a bullet wound to his head.
The unidentified person was pronounced dead at the scene.
According to reports, police found a weapon inside the vehicle and are looking into if the shooting was self-inflicted.
No other injuries were reported.
