Two injured in Route 1 crash

A Georgetown man was seriously injured April 8 following a crash on Route 1.

The collision happened at 8:41 a.m. on Route 1 near the Red Mill Inn when a 55-year-old Lewes woman driving a 2004 Toyota Sienna northbound on Route 1 stopped at the crossover to turn into the inn entrance  at 16218 Coastal Highway, said Sgt. Heather Pepper of the Delaware State Police. At the same time, she said, a 47-year-old Georgetown woman was driving a 2007 Chevrolet Trailblazer southbound on Route 1; that vehicle struck the right side of the Sienna. The Sienna driver and a passenger, a 56-year-old Georgetown man, were flown to an area hospital with serious injuries, Pepper said.

The driver of the Trailblazer was uninjured and cited for failure to yield the right of way, she said.
