Phoenix, AZ (September 20, 2025) – A traffic accident resulting in injuries occurred Thursday night, September 18, near Stetson Valley and Dean Haddle Road in northwest Phoenix. The collision involved a black 2021 Chevy Silverado and a tan-gray Toyota Camry. Emergency medical personnel were requested at the scene to provide care to the injured.
The crash was reported at approximately 9:33 p.m., and Phoenix Police units quickly arrived to assess the situation. Though the dispatch audio initially labeled the crash as a “961” (non-injury), medical support was ultimately required, indicating that at least one person sustained injuries requiring treatment.
Crews worked to assist the injured and manage the scene, which included assessing both vehicles for damage and ensuring the safety of others in the area. The Silverado and Camry involved appeared to have sustained moderate damage, and the collision occurred near a residential section of the Stetson Valley neighborhood—an area typically quieter in the late evening hours.
Authorities have not yet released the cause of the crash. However, they are likely reviewing factors such as right-of-way compliance, speed, and visibility in the moments leading up to the incident. No citations or charges have been reported at this time.
We extend our thoughts to those injured in the crash and wish them a full and prompt recovery.
Suburban Roadway Crashes in Phoenix
Collisions like the one near Stetson Valley and Dean Haddle Road often occur in residential-adjacent zones where lighting, visibility, and road design can play critical roles. While these areas may see less traffic than major arterial roads, the risk of crashes remains—especially when drivers become complacent or navigate intersections at higher speeds than recommended.
Even in late evening hours, Phoenix’s outer neighborhoods like Stetson Valley continue to see traffic from residents, rideshare drivers, and late-shift workers. When two vehicles like a full-size pickup and a sedan collide, the disparity in vehicle size can amplify injuries and damage, particularly for occupants in the smaller car.
Quick response from Phoenix Police and emergency medical personnel helped ensure that injured parties received treatment without delay. Still, the physical and financial effects of an injury crash can linger. Victims may face long-term recovery needs, emotional distress, and challenges with insurance or vehicle replacement.
