A Delaware State Police trooper and another driver were injured in a head-on crash Tuesday morning, the agency said.
A State Police trooper in a marked patrol vehicle and another trooper in an unmarked SUV were responding to a call in Clayton around 7 a.m. when a black Chevrolet Tahoe without its headlights on hit the unmarked vehicle, police said in a statement.
The marked patrol vehicle had just turned left into the driveway of a home and the unmarked vehicle was about to turn in behind it when the Tahoe swerved around the turning car and struck the unmarked SUV head-on, authorities said.
The driver of the Tahoe became trapped and was freed by firefighters, according to the Clayton Fire Company.
