Troopers Investigating a Single Vehicle Crash Involving a Propane Delivery Truck on Beach Highway

Greenwood - The Delaware State Police are currently on the scene of a single vehicle crash involving a Pep-Up propane truck east of Greenwood.

The incident occurred around 8:11 a.m. as a Pep-Up propane truck was traveling westbound on Beach Highway (SR16) just west of Hunters Cove Road when for unknown reasons, the truck drove off the north side of the roadway and then back into the travel lanes causing the truck to overturn on the passenger's side.

The male operator was removed from the scene and transported by EMS to Nanticoke Memorial Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Currently, eastbound and westbound lane have been closed in the area of the crash as hazmat teams from DelDOT and Pep-Up work to contain the diesel fuel spill. There are no reports of propane leaks.

Information regarding this incident will be detailed in a press release upon the completion of the investigation.
