MILLSBORO, Del. - Delaware State Police have identified the man killed in a deadly crash near Angola on Thursday, May 18, as 48-year-old Perry Vance of Millsboro.
The crash occurred around 5:52 a.m. on May 16 on Hollymount Road, north of John J. Williams Highway. Police said a Nissan Sentra was traveling southbound when, for reasons still under investigation, it left lane and veered into the northbound shoulder.
Two commercial flatbed trailers were parked along the northbound shoulder, partially on the grass. Orange reflective traffic cones had been placed alongside them, according to investigators. The Sentra struck the first trailer, causing it to shift and hit the second trailer.
Vance, the driver and sole occupant of the Nissan, was pronounced dead at the scene. Hollymount Road was closed for approximately 3.5 hours while authorities investigated and cleared the area.
The Delaware State Police Troop 7 Collision Reconstruction Unit is continuing to investigate the crash.Â
