The fatal crash and subsequent investigation caused Ogletown-Stanton Road and Harmony Road to close for about three hours. Crash investigators said both traffic lights at the intersection were working properly, but they did not reveal who had a red light during the crash.
No charges have been filed at this time, according to Delaware State Police.
