Delaware State Police are investigating a two-vehicle fatal crash involving a motorcycle that occurred Saturday evening in Newark.
On August 23, 2025, at approximately 8:00 p.m., a Harley-Davidson motorcycle was traveling westbound on Chestnut Hill Road, approaching North Kingston Road, in the left lane. At the same time, a Buick LaCrosse was traveling eastbound on Chestnut Hill Road in the left turn lane. As the Buick attempted to turn left onto North Kingston Road, the motorcycle crashed into the rear passenger side of the vehicle. The impact caused the rider to be ejected.
The rider, 53-year-old Jackie Spicer of Elkton, Maryland, was transported to a nearby hospital with serious injuries. On August 25, 2025, he died as a result of the injuries sustained in the crash.
The driver of the Buick, a 44-year-old woman from Newark, was not injured.
