Just after 10:30 last evening, Wednesday, June 5, 2019, rescue crews from the Christiana Fire Company, New Castle County Police and Delaware State Police were alerted to a crash on Churchmans Road in Newark.
Crews learned that a pedestrian, a woman, had been struck by a vehicle in the area of the Red Lobster, just across the street from Christina Hospital.
While en route crews were told that a nurse was on scene providing emergency first aid to the patient.
It’s not clear if the woman was transported to the hospital, however, reports from the scene indicate that the woman did succumb to her injuries.
The scene was turned over to the Delaware State Police who are investigating the crash.
