Released Wednesday, June 04, 2008

Delmar – The Delaware State Police are investigating an afternoon crash that left a 31-year-old Delmar Maryland man in critical condition. Troopers responded to the three-car crash today at 4:40 pm on US 13A just south of Allens Mill Road north of Delmar, after it was reported two cars struck head on.

Investigators learned a 2006 Mazda, operated by David C. Milewski, 31 of Delmar, MD, was traveling northbound on US 13A when it passed a 2004 Chevy Pick-up, that was also traveling northbound in front of his vehicle, operated by Richard Webster, 64 of Laurel.

As the Mazda was passing the Chevy, a third vehicle was traveling southbound on US 13A. The Mazda collided head with this southbound vehicle, a 2005 Kia 4-door, operated by Ruth Hoover, 71 of Laurel. After the impact, the Mazda then swerved right striking the Chevy pick-up.

As a result of the crash, the operator of the Mazda, David Milewski, is currently in critical condition at PRMC. He was not wearing a seatbelt and alcohol is suspected as a factor on his behalf. The operator of the Chevy, Richard Webster, was wearing a seatbelt and was not injured.

The operator of the Kia, Ruth Hoover, was admitted to PRMC with multiple injuries and is in serious condition. She was wearing a seatbelt. Two passengers in her vehicle, who were seated in the rear with seatbelts on, were treated and released from PRMC for minor injuries.
