It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Aalyah Casson, a 26-year-old resident of Felton, Delaware, who tragically lost her life in a single-vehicle crash in Dover during the early morning hours of May 6, 2026. Aalyah Casson has died following injuries sustained in the collision, leaving her family, friends, and community in mourning.
According to authorities, officers responded to the Unit Block of South New Street, just south of West Division Street, at approximately 12:44 a.m. following reports of a serious crash. Upon arrival, they located a 2013 Nissan Murano that had left the roadway and struck a tree. Aalyah was found inside the vehicle with severe injuries. Despite immediate life-saving efforts by emergency responders at the scene, she was later pronounced dead.
Preliminary findings indicate that Aalyah had been traveling westbound on West Division Street before turning onto South New Street. Investigators believe the vehicle may have been traveling at a high rate of speed, contributing to a loss of control before the crash. Authorities have also stated that she was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the accident. The incident remains under active investigation as officials work to determine all contributing factors.
