Multiple crashes were reported along Route 24 in the Long Neck area between Thursday and Saturday, sending several people to nearby hospitals as Delaware State Police investigate each incident.

Fire crews responded to assist Sussex County Paramedics, who were unable to reach a patient in the flood-affected Pot Nets Coveside community. The Indian River Volunteer Fire Company said its utility units allow it to reach people who may otherwise be cut off during storms or high tide conditions.

Firefighters say two people were hurt and transported to nearby medical facilities for further evaluation.
