PSP Logo

• The 17-year-old driver of a 2002 Toyota Camry was pronounced dead at the scene of a two-car accident after he lost control of his car on a right hand curve on Smithbridge Road in Concord Township. A police report said he was traveling westbound when he crossed into the path of oncoming traffic and was struck on the front passenger side by a 2008 Land Rover LR2. The second driver, a 17-year-old female, received minor injuries. The deceased was later identified as Kip Taviano. The accident happened about 5:39 p.m. on May 28.

• A Wilmington man was charged with several offenses following a hit and run crash at routes 1 and 202 on May 23. According to a police report, Luis Francisco Tirado-Camacho, 31, was driving north on Route 202 about 6:25 a.m. when he drove through a red light, turned left onto Route 1 and struck the driver side of a Ford Ranger. Tirado-Camacho fled the crash site, continuing south on Route 1, but a witness followed him, pulling in front of the defendant and forcing him to stop on the shoulder of the road, the report said. When police arrived, Tirado-Camacho was charged with DUI, hit and run and with forgery because he had a fraudulent Social Security card.

• Eric Jackson, 21, of Glen Mills, was arrested for DUI following a traffic stop at routes 1 and 202 at 1:24 a.m. on May 23. No other details were available.

• There was a break-in at an undisclosed restaurant on Smithbridge Road in Concord Township during the early morning of May 28. Police said someone failed in an attempt to pry open a rear door, but then broke a window near the door to gain entry. Nothing was stolen, the report said, because the unknown suspect fled when the alarm went off. The incident happened about 4:20 a.m.
