HAMILTON TWP. -- A horrifying hit and run claimed the life of a teenager near the Atlantic County 4-H Fair.

It happened just after 9:00pm on Route 50. That's where police received reports of a pedestrian being struck by a vehicle which then left the scene.

Authorities have confirmed that there is one fatality.

They're now looking for the driver in an older model silver SUV with square headlights. The front grill is missing and the passenger-side headlight and mirror are both damaged as well.

Anyone with information can call the Hamilton Township Police Department at (609)625-2700.

The state Forest Fire Service is responding to Bass River State Forest for another fire near the site of last week's blaze that scorched 677 acres of pinelands, a fire official said Tuesday.

A watchman in a fire tower detected smoke Tuesday morning off Dan's Bridge Road, and four or five engines and a bulldozer responded, said Division Fire Warden Bert Plante. The firefighters found four or five acres burning in a section that was not touched by last week's blaze, and a vehicle in the middle of it.

A combination of recent rain and light winds make it unlikely this fire will spread, Plante said.

State Police are investigating whether the vehicle was stolen, Plante said.
