Delaware State Police have released the name of a woman killed in a three-vehicle crash in Seaford that left three other people injured.
Police identified the woman as 48-year-old Hope A. Jackson, of Seaford.
Troopers said the incident happened at around 3:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 30, when a 2017 Fiat Coupe was traveling eastbound on County Seat Highway (US 9) and stopped at the intersection of Asbury Road, intending to turn left. Police said a 2014 Ford Mustang was traveling eastbound on County Seat Highway and approaching the Fiat. At the same time a 2009 Ford Econoline van was traveling westbound on County Seat Highway and approaching the intersection of Asbury Road.
Police said that for unknown reasons, the operator of the Mustang failed to perceive that the Fiat was stopped and rear-ended it. Police said this caused the Fiat to rotate counterclockwise into the westbound lane and head directly into the path of the van.
