Sussex Co, DE - Fatal Crash on Indian Mission Rd and Friendship Rd

Sussex Co, DE (January 25, 2025) – A two-car crash occurred on Friday, January 24, in Sussex County, resulting in one fatality and leaving another individual with injuries. The incident happened at approximately 6:45 p.m. at the intersection of Indian Mission Road and Friendship Road, causing road closures in the area.  

According to authorities, the collision involved an SUV and a sedan. Emergency responders, including local fire departments and paramedics, were dispatched to the scene to assist in extricating individuals trapped in the cars. Tragically, the driver of the sedan was pronounced dead at the scene, while the driver of the SUV was transported to Beebe Healthcare in Lewes for treatment of injuries.  

The Delaware State Police are actively investigating the cause of the crash. Crews worked to clear debris and manage traffic, with the roadway temporarily closed to ensure safety. Motorists were advised to seek alternate routes to avoid delays.  

Our heartfelt condolences go out to the family and friends of the deceased individual during this grieving time. We also hope the wounded parties recover rapidly.
