LINCOLN PARK — Investigators are actively probing the link between a car found burning near a commercial building and a body found in a park half a mile away.

The vehicle fire broke out along Ungerer Way in Lincoln Park around 7:16 a.m. Saturday morning, according to the Morris County Prosecutor's Office. The offshoot road leads to buildings owned by Ungerer & Company, a privately owned business.

Police and fire responded to the scene. The blaze was put out without any injuries and investigators began looking into the cause of the fire.

Then hours later, the body of a male was found half a mile away in the woods near Lynn Park around 3 p.m., according to officials. The community park features paths, playground equipment, a baseball field, and open space.

Authorities said their investigation confirmed the identity of the victim, who was the driver of the vehicle found on fire. The victim's identity and cause of death have not been released.

"At this time there is no indication of suspicious criminal activity," the prosecutor's office said in a statement. Lincoln Police said there was no threat to the community.

The Morris County Prosecutor's Office, the county sheriff's office, and the Lincoln Park police are investigating.

LOOK: See how much gasoline cost the year you started driving

To find out more about how has the price of gas changed throughout the years, Stacker ran the numbers on the cost of a gallon of gasoline for each of the last 84 years. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (released in April 2020), we analyzed the average price for a gallon of unleaded regular gasoline from 1976 to 2020 along with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for unleaded regular gasoline from 1937 to 1976, including the absolute and inflation-adjusted prices for each year.

Read on to explore the cost of gas over time and rediscover just how much a gallon was when you first started driving.
