Emergency crews responded to a serious crash at the intersection of Capitol Trail and Brewster Drive in Newark shortly after 7:20 a.m. on Wednesday.
Crews included personnel from Aetna Hose, Hook and Ladder Company, New Castle County Paramedics, and the Delaware State Police. Initial reports indicated that two individuals were trapped in the wreckage.
First responders worked to extricate at least one individual from a vehicle. One person was transported to Christiana Hospital with injuries that have not yet been disclosed, while the other individual was assessed on the scene and declined transport.
Capitol Trail remains closed between Red Mill Road and Harmony Road, with authorities expecting it to remain so for several hours. Consequently, surrounding routes, including Red Mill Road, Harmony Road, and Ruthar Road, have experienced increased traffic.
