Delaware State Police are reporting a 5-year-old child was killed Wednesday in a multi-vehicle crash north of Milford.

Delaware State Police spokesman Master Cpl. Gary Fournier said around 8:05 p.m. May 17, the child’s 37-year-old father was driving a Mitsubishi Eclipse south on State Route 1. The man was preparing to turn into an Exxon station at Wayne D Avenue.

Meantime, a 56-year-old Hockessin man was driving a Ford Fusion north with a Chevrolet Silverado driven by a 44-year-old Hartly man slightly behind.

Fournier said the Eclipse went into the left turn lane but failed to yield to northbound traffic. It hit the truck at the same time the Fusion was trying to pass the pickup and hit the Fusion on the right side.
