SOUTH TOMS RIVER - A registered nurse performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on a pedestrian after striking the woman with her car near 308 Atlantic City Boulevard, according to the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office.

Allyse Gombas, 28, of Toms RIver was driving her 2008 Kia Optima northbound around 10:50 p.m. Saturday when she struck Danielle Frederick, 26, of Toms River and Vincent Mangione, 27, of Jackson "in the roadway," according to an email from Al Della Fave, a spokesman for the prosecutor's office.

When police arrived, they found Gombas and an off-duty emergency medical technician providing CPR to Frederick, Della Fave said.

"Gombas is an on-duty registered nurse and immediately exited her vehicle to render aid to Frederick who was unresponsive," Della Fave said. "She continued treatment until arrival of paramedics."

Paramedics stabilized Frederick and she was sent to Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune, Della Fave said. She was last known to be in critical condition.

Gombas remained at the scene of the collision to provide a statement, Della Fave said. She "did not show any signs of impairment and a blood sample was not obtained."

Mangione suffered a "minor injury" and was treated at Community Medical Center in Toms River, Della Fave said.

A search of court records showed no criminal charges or traffic summonses related to the collision.
