Driver Drops iPod, Causes Fatal Car Accident


August 18, 2009 - Upper Darby, PA
- 19-year-old Nicole Gallo was killed on Friday when a driver dropped their iPod, lost control of the vehicle and crashed into Gallo and her friend who were walking on a sidewalk.

The fatal car accident occurred just outside Delaware County Memorial Hospital when Gallo and 20-year-old Christine Bochanski were hit by a Hyundai Accent driven by 20-year-old Rachel Jankins. According to reports, Jankins had dropped her iPod on the floor of her car and bent over to pick it up when she lost control of the vehicle, crossed several lanes, then jumped onto the sidewalk where Gallo and Bochanski were standing.

Bochanski is currently in critical but stable condition at Crozer-Chester Medical Center and is expected to survive her injuries. Gallo died instantly at the scene of the car crash.

Police are waiting on the blood alcohol results from Jankins among other factors. Charges have not yet been filed against Jankins.
