Car Crash Closes Chester Pike

Police received a request for help on a Wednesday morning, just before 8:30 a.m., that reported a two-vehicle crash with possible entrapment and a vehicle on fire. Prospect Park and Tinicum Township fire companies responded to the accident, arriving at the same time. They were told, upon arrival, that there was no one trapped in the vehicle. However, there was an engine fire, and it required several departments to put it out. They also had to clean up a significant debris field and secure the runoff from the vehicle to keep the oil out of the storm drain.

There were injuries reported in the accident. There was no indication of how many people were hurt or the extent of their injuries. The news reports did not indicate that the police had determined the cause of the accident.

Factors That Prove Fault

When two vehicles are involved in an accident, the first step is always to protect oneself from further injuries and to seek full medical care. Police will gather evidence from the scene, including taking photos of what happened and tracking debris. However, proving who is at fault can be challenging in many cases.

For victims, it is just as important to have as much evidence as possible to uphold their side of the story. Provide police with a formal statement, share any photos you took of the accident or your injuries with your car accident lawyer, and focus on your medical care.
