Crash in Little Creek Causes Car to Strike Home

Released Wednesday, October 28, 2008

Little Creek – The Delaware State Police investigated an afternoon crash that sent one party to the hospital after their car struck a home on Main Street. Troopers responded to the two-car crash at approximately 12:30 pm today in the 200 block of Main Street, Little Creek.

The investigation revealed a 2000 Honda Passport, operated by Sherline Exantus, 28 of Dover, was traveling southbound on Main Street. A 2002 Dodge Neon, operated by Kathleen Goodman, 77 of Dover, was stopped at a stop sign on Wilson Lane waiting to turn left onto Main Street.

The Neon pulled out in front of the Passport causing the crash. The operator of the Passport attempted an evasive maneuver to avoid the crash and was still struck by the Neon. As a result of the crash, the Passport exited the road and struck an unoccupied home in the 200 block of Main Street.

The operator of the Passport sustained minor injuries and was taken to Kent General Hospital for treatment. The operator of the Neon was not injured. Alcohol is not a factor and both parties were wearing seatbelts.

Ms. Goodman was cited for Failure to Remain Stopped at a Stop Sign.
