A crash in Mardela Springs late Saturday night claimed the life of an 18-year-old man, and injured several other people. The wreck occurred on Riverton Road and remains under investigation, according to the Wicomico County Sheriff鈥檚 Office. The victim who died was identified as the driver, Nicholas James Hicks of Mardela Springs. The Sheriff’s Office says its investigation indicates that none of the occupants wore seat belts and that speed may have been a factor.
