Local teen injured in 'horseplay' incident BRICK TOWNSHIP - Police are investigating a Jan. 7 incident in which a township youth was injured after he fell from the roof of a car he was clinging to. Nicholas Morris, 17, received head injuries when he fell from the vehicle and struck the roadway. The incident began shortly after 7 p.m. when Jerilynn A. Garitta, 17, Brick, was parked in the roadway in front of 115 Rainbow Drive. Garitta was outside of the car at first, talking to Morris and other friends, but later locked herself inside the 1994 Pontiac Grand Prix because of "horseplay," police said. When the pedestrians began to rock her vehicle back and forth on the driver's side, Garitta put the car in drive and began to pull away as they banged on the car. Morris was on the roof of the car, with his waist and legs hanging over the driver's-side rear door, police said. He fell from the car and hit the roadway. He was treated at the scene by Community First Aid Squad members and taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center, Neptune. Patrolman Jeffrey Lindquist and Sgt. Donald Ling of the traffic safety unit are investigating.
