Police Investigate 2 Separate Accidents On Township Line

UPPER DARBY—Haverford Township Police initially investigated a two-car accident on Thursday afternoon, which severely damaged one of the cars driven by a woman, who had her young child with her.

Haverford Township Police were the first on the scene, but since the accident happened on the northbound lane of Township Line Road, which is in Upper Darby Township and police from that township were called in. The southbound lane of Township Line Road is in Haverford Township.

Police said they were still investigating what happened and did not release details of the 2 p.m. accident on Thursday.

However, the driver of a red Plymouth Breeze, who only gave her first name as Hallie, told the Haverford-Havertown Patch that she hit her brakes at the stoplight at the intersection of Township Line and Juniper roads, but “kept on going” and hit a silver Lexus RX 350 in front of her.

It was not immediately clear if the Lexus in front of her was stopped at the stoplight.

Hallie, who was driving with her 2-year-old son, said that she and her child were OK and were looked at by the East Lansdowne Fire Department EMS.

Firefighters from the Upper Darby Fire Department arrived to put sand on the transmission fluid that leaked out of Hallie’s Plymouth, which had to be towed away by Herby’s Towing Service.

The female driver of the Lexus, who did not give out her name, only stated that she was “shaken.”

Hallie and her son were given a ride to the Upper Darby Police Department so she could make arrangements on how to get home.

HAVERTOWN—The Haverford Township Police told Patch that around 10:30 a.m. on Thursday a female driver had a “medical incident” on Township Line Road. 

Police said her vehicle was overturned and the female driver was unconscious until emergency personnel pulled her out of her vehicle, where she regained consciousness.

Police did not release the details of the accident or the woman’s name, but did say that she was flown to University of Pennsylvania Hospital in Philadelphia.
