Bear- Delaware State Police are investigating a fatal motor vehicle collision that claimed the lives of a Newark mother and son last night.

The Kia crossed the westbound lanes of Highway 40 and entered the crossover immediately west of Holly Avenue. The Kia then began crossing the eastbound lanes of Route 40. At the same time, a 2021 Dodge Charger was traveling eastbound on Route 40 in the right lane of traffic.

The Kia entered the Dodge’s path, causing the front of the Dodges to strike the passenger side of the Kia in the right lane of Highway 40 eastbound. As a result, the Kia completely split in two, with the rear part moving from the southern edge. of the roadway and in the grassy area just east of Shorewinds Road. Sitting in the left rear seat was a 7-year-old boy who was thrown from the car. Unfortunately, the child suffered fatal injuries and was pronounced deceased at the scene.
