LAWNSIDE, NJ.- On Thursday, a 29-year-old North Wales, Pennsylvania man was taken into custody and charged in connection with a fatal motor vehicle crash that occurred on May 13, 2024, in Lawnside, New Jersey, that killed a 69-year-old Cherry Hill, New Jersey woman and injured her 69-year-old passenger who still remains hospitalized.


     According to Camden County Prosecutor Grace C. MacAulay, on Monday, May 13, 2024, shortly after 9:30 p.m., members of the Lawnside Police Department responded to a 911 Emergency Call reporting a serious motor vehicle crash near the intersection of White Horse Pike and Gloucester Avenue in Lawnside.


     Upon arrival, Police Officers located a two-vehicle crash. One vehicle being operated by Anwar Parham, 29, of North Wales, Pennsylvania, collided with the second vehicle being operated by Theresa Karbach, 69, of Cherry Hill, New Jersey, and a 69-year-old Pine Hill, New Jersey woman who was her passenger. Both women had to be extricated from the vehicle by members of the Lawnside Volunteer Fire Department.



     All three individuals involved in the crash were immediately transported to Cooper University Hospital where Ms. Karbach succumbed to her injuries and was pronounced deceased two hours later. Ms. Karbach's passenger still remains in the hospital where she continues to recover from injuries. Mr. Parham was treated and later released.


     An investigation by members of the Camden County Prosecutor's Office and the Lawnside Police Department determined that Parham was driving on a suspended driver's license and driving at a high rate of speed when the collision occurred.


     Accordingly, on Thursday, May 23, 2024, Parham was taken into custody at the Lawnside Police Department and formally charged with second-degree Death by Auto; third-degree Driving with a Suspended License During a Fatal Motor Vehicle Crash; and fourth-degree Assault by Auto. 


     Following being processed on the charges, Parham was remanded to the Camden County Correctional Facility pending future court proceedings in Camden County Superior Court in Camden, New Jersey.


"The rules of the court requires us to include a statement, that states: The charges outlined in this publication are merely accusations and the defendant and or defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt."
