BRICK, NJ — A Toms River motorcyclist was seriously injured Monday night in a crash on Brick Boulevard when a vehicle turned into his path, Brick police said.

Christopher Cincis, 36, of Toms River, was taken to Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune with injuries to his extremities following the crash that happened just after 7 p.m. at Bay Harbor Plaza shopping center, Brick Patrolman David Thergesen said.

Cincis had the right-of-way; Kornas was not injured, he said.
