Corporal Gary Fournier of the Delaware State Police says McCray was not properly restrained and was ejected from his car. 

McCray was transported to Atlantic General Hospital where he was pronounced dead.

The Collision Reconstruction Unit is continuing their investigation into this incident. 

According to authorities, it is unknown at this time if alcohol or drugs were contributing factors in this case.

Parker Road was closed for approximately two and a half hours while the crash was investigated and cleared.
