MILLSBORO, Del. – The Indian River Volunteer Fire Company (IRVFC) responded to a serious two-vehicle head-on crash that occurred early Saturday morning.

Just before 4:45 a.m. on Sept. 19, first responders were alerted for an automatic crash notification in the 34000 block of Long Neck Road. Crews say the crash notification was transmitted from a Toyota, but was shortly after upgraded to a vehicle accident with entrapment upon arrival of emergency response personnel.

Emergency crews worked to stabilize the vehicles, extricate patients, recover fluid and debris, and conduct traffic control.

IRVFC says a gray Honda Accord and a black Toyota Camry collided head-on at a sharp curve, causing injury and damage to both vehicles. Both occupants were transported to nearby medical facilities for additional observations.

The Delaware State Fire Police coordinated the complete closure of Long Neck Road for the duration of the incident. Delaware State Police are reportedly investigating this crash.
