A Frankford woman died Oct. 10 after police say she ran off a Millsboro-area roadway and struck a tree.

Penny G. Lewis was driving a 2008 Ford F150 at 3:56 p.m. traveling eastbound on Daisey Road approaching a moderate right curve when for unknown reasons, she failed to negotiate the curve, said Master Cpl. Melissa Jaffe of the Delaware State Police.

The truck ran off the roadway and struck a tree, Jaffe said. Lewis was transported to the Penninsula Regional Medical Center where she succumbed to her injuries.

Daisey Road in the area of Sand Hill Lane was closed for about 3.5 hours while the crash was investigated and cleared.

The crash continues to remain under investigation by the Delaware State Police Collision Reconstruction Unit.
