A University of Delaware freshman tragically lost her life in a devastating incident that occurred on Tuesday night. Noelia Gomez, an 18-year-old student from Clark, New Jersey, was struck and killed by a speeding motorcyclist while crossing a street near the college campus.
The motorcyclist, identified as Brian Briddle, 27, was attempting to evade a traffic stop initiated by a University of Delaware police officer. Briddle disregarded the officer's signal to stop and fled at a high speed, ultimately colliding with Gomez within a minute of the attempted stop.
