WILMINGTON, Del. — Delaware State Police are investigating a fatal collision involving two vehicles that occurred Thursday morning in Wilmington, leaving one woman dead and two others injured.
The crash took place on December 5 at approximately 10:20 a.m. when a Honda Civic attempted a left turn onto East Lea Boulevard southbound from Colony Boulevard.
