The Delaware State Police are investigating a two-vehicle fatal crash that occurred this morning in Camden that left one man dead.
On June 26, 2024, at approximately 5:00 a.m., a 2009 Cadillac Escalade was traveling eastbound on Walnut Shade Road, west of Barney Jenkins Road. At the same time, a 2016 Honda Accord was traveling westbound on Walnut Shade Road, approaching the Cadillac. For unknown reasons, the Cadillac failed to maintain its lane and crossed the centerline into the Honda’s path of travel. As a result, the front of the Cadillac struck the front of the Honda in the westbound lane of Walnut Shade Road.
The driver of the Honda, identified as 31-year-old Brian Moore of Magnolia, Delaware, was pronounced dead at the scene. His family has been notified.
The driver of the Cadillac, an 18-year-old man from Bear, Delaware, was taken by ambulance to an area hospital for non-life-threatening injuries. The Cadillac’s passenger, a 19-year-old woman from Harrington, Delaware, was flown to an area hospital for non-life threatening injuries.
