New Jersey man killed in crash in Harbeson
HARBESON — The Delaware State Police Collision Reconstruction Unit is investigating a crash involving a car and a tractor trailer in which a 79-year-old New Jersey man was killed on Friday afternoon, according to police.
Master Cpl. Melissa Jaffe, spokesperson for the police, said the crash took place at around 4:30 on Friday when a 2014 Subaru Outback was traveling west on Beaver Dam Road approaching the intersection of Indian Mission Road in Harbeson, which is controlled by a posted stop sign.
A 2015 Volvo tractor trailer towing an enclosed box-style trailer was traveling north on Indian Mission Road approaching the same intersection. However, Indian Mission Road is a throughway and traffic is not required to stop at the intersection.
For unknown reasons, the driver of the Outback failed to remain stopped and entered the intersection directly into the path of the tractor trailer. After the impact, the tractor trailer continued to swerve and exited the west edge of Indian Mission Road, where it struck several trees before coming to rest in a wooded area.
The driver of the Outback, a 79-year-old man from New Jersey, was wearing his seat belt. He was taken to the Beebe Medical Center in Lewes where he was pronounced dead. His name is being withheld pending the notification of next of kin. A female passenger was also in the vehicle and was wearing her seat belt. She was transported to Christiana Hospital in critical condition.
The driver of the tractor trailer, a 33-year-old man from Pennsylvania, was also wearing his seatbelt. He was taken to the Beebe Medical Center where he was treated and released with minor injuries.
Indian Mission Road, in the area of Beaver Dam Road, was closed for around five-and-a-half hours while the crash was investigated and cleared.
