Single Vehicle Accident - 600 Block of Atlantic Avenue
August 03, 2009
On Monday August 3 at 4:15 p.m., the Millville Volunteer Fire Company was dispatched to a motor vehicle accident at 617 Atlantic Avenue. The firefighters and ambulance personnel arrived to a single vehicle accident. A KIA Amanti was traveling west on Atlantic Avenue when the operator ran off the left side of the road sheering off a utility pole, came back onto the roadway still going west, and eventually stopped in the westbound lane. Millville ambulance personnel treated the driver at the scene for minor injuries. He refused to be transported to a medical facility for additional treatment. Assistant Chief Richie Walls turned the accident scene over to the Delaware State Police for investigation. The Delmarva Power Company was dispatched to replace the broken utility pole. Atlantic Avenue was closed down from Roxana Road to Muddy Neck Road until the utility pole was replaced. “DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS PROUDLY SERVING OUR COMMUNITY”
