On Thursday, November 5^th, Rescue 80 and Ladder 89 responded to the motor vehicle accident on North duPont Highway and East Basin Road Southbound on Ramp.  It was reported to the fire station by a passing motorist who came upon the incident.

Emergency response units included Rescue 80, Ladder 89, Utility 80, and Ambulance A-32 (Wilmington Manor EMS).

Emergency response crews were requested to stabilize the vehicle, assess the patient for pre-hospital emergency care, provide traffic control, and incident mitigation.

It appears that a black Lincoln SUV was traveling on North duPont Highway attempting to exit onto East Basin Road South Ramp and did not successfully make the turn striking signage and the utility pole.

All occupants of the vehicle refused additional medical services.

The Delaware State Police are investigating.
