Three Injured in Serious Lewes Area Crash

Lewes - The Delaware State Police Crash Reconstruction Unit is currently investigating a serious motor vehicle crash in which three people were injured that occurred early this morning west of Lewes.

The initial investigation has determined that the crash occurred this morning, Sunday, December 14, 2014, at approximately 2:00 a.m., as Donna J. White, 67, of Cobra, MD, was operating a 2007 Pontiac Vibe and was attempting to turn onto Log Cabin Hill Road (CR 347) from the parking lot of the Lewes-Rehoboth Moose Lodge, located .3 miles west of Sweetbriar Road (CR 261), four miles west of Lewes. As White began to enter the roadway, she failed to yield to oncoming traffic. The left front of White's vehicle was then struck by the left front of a 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser, which was being operated by Angelo Gring-Vazquez, 20, of Lewes, DE, and which had been traveling in an eastbound direction on Log Cabin Hill Road.

Donna White, who was properly restrained at the time of the crash, was removed from the scene by EMS and transported to Beebe Healthcare's Medical Center in Lewes. She was later flown to the Christiana Hospital where she is being treated for her serious injuries.

A passenger in White's vehicle, Patricia A. Kent, 59, of Lancaster, PA, who was not properly restrained at the time of the crash, was removed from the scene by Delaware State Police Helicopter (Trooper 4) and transported to Beebe Healthcare where she is being treated for her serious injuries.

A 67 year old female passenger in Gring-Vazquez' vehicle, who was not properly restrained at the time of the crash, was removed from the scene by EMS and transported to Beebe Healthcare where she is being treated for her injuries. The name of the female passenger is being withheld pending the notification of her next of kin.

Angelo Gring-Vazquez, who was not properly restrained at the time of the crash, was not injured. He was cited by troopers with driving under the influence of alcohol.

The investigation into this crash by the Delaware State Police Crash Reconstruction Unit is continuing at this time and more charges are expected.

Log Cabin Hill Road was closed for approximately 3 hours as this crash was investigated and cleared.
