Delaware State Police are investigating a fatal crash that occurred last week, resulting in the death of a New Castle man. On September 26, 2024, 52-year-old Ronald Meadowcroft died from injuries sustained during the crash.
On September 18, 2024, at approximately 9:39 p.m., a Harley-Davidson FXS, operated by Meadowcroft, was traveling southbound on Wrangle Hill Road approaching the intersection of Porter Road. Simultaneously, a 27-year-old man from Bear, Delaware, was driving northbound in an Acura RSX on Wrangle Hill Road, also approaching the intersection. As the Acura attempted to make a left turn, it crossed into the path of the motorcycle, causing a collision between the front ends of both vehicles.
The driver of the Acura, a 27-year-old man from Bear, Delaware, was transported to a local hospital for non-life-threatening injuries and later released. Meadowcroft sustained serious injuries in the crash and was also taken to a local hospital, where he remained in critical condition until he died on September 26.
Wrangle Hill Road was closed for approximately two hours while Delaware State Police Troop 2 investigated the crash and cleared the roadway.
The investigation remains ongoing, and troopers are asking anyone who may have witnessed the crash to contact Master Corporal Robert Kunicki at (302) 365-8484.
