Trooper Reaches Dead End in Pedestrian Crash Investigation Released- Thursday, March 20, 2008 Claymont- On March 1st, at approximately 12:14 a.m., two boys were skateboarding across Silverside Road at Concord Pike when one of the boys was struck by an SUV. The impact occurred in the roadway and not in a designated crosswalk. The boy, a 15-year-old Wilmington resident, was thrown as a result of the impact approximately 20 yards from where he was struck. After the crash, the SUV fled the scene eastbound on Silverside Road. The friend of the boy who was struck could only advise the SUV was dark in color and had a Delaware tag. It should have sustained front end damage. The pedestrian who was struck was identified as James Sharpe. He was transported from the scene to A.I. DuPont Hospital for Children where he was treated for a broken leg and other contusions. The officer handling this case has reached a dead end in his investigation. He is asking that anyone with information pertaining to this incident call 302.761.6677 ext. 307. |
