Year-Old Abby Gillon Tr agical
Adding another layer of grief to
the tragedy is the fact that the 12-year-old’s friend, who was also involved in the accident,
faces a long road to recovery after sustaining several severe injuries.
On June 14, 2025, a devastating accident occurred in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, which left two young girls critically injured.
Sadly, after fighting for her life at Nemours Children’s Hospital, one of the girls, 12-year-old Abby Gillon, passed away two days later on June 16, at 2:28 p.m. A fundraiser has since been set up to support her bereaved family.
Initial repost from the Aston Township Police confirmed that emergency crews were dispatched to the intersection of Lehr Boulevard and Concord Road at approximately 2:18 p.m. on a Saturday. There, first responders found two young girls suffering from life-threatening injuries after being struck by a vehicle while riding an electric scooter (e-scooter), from which they fell off.
The driver of the car involved remained at the scene and cooperated fully with authorities. While no criminal charges or citations have been filed, the investigation remains ongoing, led jointly by Aston Township Police and the Delaware County Accident Reconstruction Team.
