As Your Content readers know, police in Delaware County responded to reports of a fatal car accident early Monday afternoon.
But as officers were responding to the emergency their nightmare worsened: a 911 call for reports of shots fired came in from the same location.
When cops arrived they located a gray Ford Fusion on the 1400 block of West 9th Street.
Your Content readers were first to learn that emergency personnel flooded the small town after reports of a fatal vehicular accident.
Police say the vehicle had struck a pole and had heavy front end damage. The occupant of the vehicle, who was identified as Diana Davis, 62, was unresponsive.
Upon further observation, it was learned that the vehicle had a bullet hole in the passenger door as well as a second bullet hole in the trunk area. Paramedics were on location and did extract Ms. Davis from the vehicle and began treating her for her injuries.
While treating Ms. Davis, it was discovered that she had sustained a gunshot wound to her side. Paramedics transported Ms. Davis to Crozer Chester Medical Center where she received further treatment, however, she did succumb to her injuries and was pronounced deceased a short time later.
