LAUREL, Del. — A Salisbury driver was killed in a head-on collision with a dump truck in southern Delaware Tuesday morning. Five others were also injured in the crash.
The accident happened at about 7:42 a.m. Nov. 22 on Horsey Church Road in the Laurel area, said Delaware State Police.
A 29-year-old Salisbury man was driving a 2002 Ford Crown Victoria, when he crashed head-on into a 2013 International dump truck in the opposite lane; the dump truck was towing a flatbed trailer.
The Salisbury man was not properly wearing a seatbelt, and was pronounced dead at the scene. He has not been identified yet.
The dump-truck driver - a 48-year-old man from Salisbury - suffered non-life-threatening injuries, as did the four passengers of the dump truck. All were taken to an area hospital.
