Rebecca Whiddon Obituary – The Bucks County Coroner’s Office has released the identities of the two individuals who lost their lives in a tragic accident in Bristol Township. Richard Whiddon, aged 37, and Rebecca Whiddon, aged 33, were the victims of the crash that occurred on Veterans Highway at Ford Road on Saturday afternoon.
The couple, who were visiting from Connecticut, sadly did not survive the collision. Our deepest condolences go out to their family during this difficult time. In addition to the fatalities, two other individuals were injured and have been transported to Jefferson-Torresdale Hospital for medical treatment. The driver responsible for the accident, identified as John Wadlinger, aged 31, fled the scene on foot after striking the Whiddons’ vehicle.
Wadlinger, a resident of Croydon, has since been apprehended and is currently in custody for a previous conviction. It is important to note that he has not yet been charged with the fatalities. The Bucks County District Attorney’s Office is now actively involved in the investigation of this case.
