Montco Teen Killed In Crash In Delaware: State Police

WILLOW GROVE, PA — A Montgomery County teenager was among two victims killed in a crash in Delaware over the weekend.

The incident occurred on Sunday, Oct. 6 at around 1:34 a.m. in Seaford, which is in far southwestern Delaware near the Maryland border, some twenty miles from Salisbury.

A 2016 Nissan Rogue was heading south on Sussex Highway when a 2005 Honda Pilot, heading north, veered into the Nissan's path of travel, Delaware State Police said.

The Rogue's rear right passenger was an 18-year-old from Willow Grove, according to authorities. She and the Rogue's front passenger, a 22-year-old man from Fayetteville, North Carolina, were both pronounced dead at the scene.

Authorities withheld their names as they're still in the process of notifying family and relatives.

The driver of the Pilot, the driver of the Rogue, and the Rogue's left rear passenger were all hospitalized with serious injuries, police said.

Further details on the accident were not provided, but state police said that "impairment was suspected to be a factor."

The roadway was shut down for about three hours after the crash. Delaware State Police are continuing to investigate. If you have any information or witnessed the crash, contact Master Corporal K. Argo at (302) 703-3264.
