Alcohol may have been a factor in one-car crash that resulted in two people needing to be airlifted from the scene on Interstate 78 in Bernards Township late Saturday night, State Police said.

The extent of their injuries was not immediately known Sunday morning.

According to State Police, the driver of the vehicle lost control in the left lane of eastbound lanes of the highway and struck the guardrail on the right side of the roadway at about 11:40 p.m. The car then came to a stop on the left side of the highway in the grass median, State Police said.

The two occupants were airlifted to Morristown Medical Center.

No further information was available Sunday morning.
