On Monday afternoon, a fatal car accident in Seaford, Delaware claimed the life of one victim, and caused injuries to another individual. The crash occurred when a 31-year-old woman failed to stop in an intersection, and hit another car. The impact of the collision caused the woman’s car to overturn. The driver and her passenger, as well as the other driver, were brought to the Nanticoke Memorial Hospital for treatment. After arriving at the hospital, the passenger succumbed to fatal injuries while the driver who struck the other car was discharged from the hospital. The other driver required a transfer to the Peninsula Regional Medical Center.
