Nature: Vehicle Accident

Location: Holly Lake Rd & John J Williams Hwy., Millsboro, DE 19966

On Saturday evening, September 20th, while operating at the scene of an earlier vehicle accident, the Indian River Volunteer Fire Company was alerted for a second vehicle accident at the intersection of Holly Lake Road and John J. Williams Highway. It was reported to be a multiple vehicle collision.

Emergency response units from the earlier incident were reassigned to respond.  These units included: Engine #80-5 from the Long Neck facility, Rescue 80 and Brush #80-00 from the Oak Orchard facility, as well as the Delaware State Fire Police.

Emergency response crew assignments were to assist with patient stabilization, scene mitigation, vehicle stabilization, scene preservation, and traffic control.

It appears that eastbound traffic was slowing on John J. Williams Highway near the intersection of Holly Lake Road when a tan Ford F150 Pick- up, struck the rear end of a Lexus ES300, which in turn struck a white Hyundai Elantra.

The Delaware State Fire Police provide traffic control assistance for the duration of the incident with lane restrictions.

The Delaware State Police are investigating.
