Hero Driver Delivers Food Post-Accident
8 Oct
Summary
- Driver continued delivery after severe car accident.
- Customer collected food from the accident scene.
- Fundraiser launched for driver's car and medical costs.
A DoorDash delivery driver in Maryland has been lauded for his commitment after continuing a delivery despite being involved in a serious car accident last month. William Koroma's vehicle suffered brake failure on Church Road in Bowie, Maryland, resulting in a significant crash that left his car beyond repair. Remarkably, Koroma contacted his customer, Glenn Ndibnu, to explain the situation. He offered for Ndibnu to collect the food order from the accident scene, an offer the customer accepted. Videos of the unusual pickup, showing food on the pavement near the damaged car and emergency vehicles, quickly gained traction online. The accident left Koroma facing financial hardship, as he lost his vehicle and job. Consequently, a GoFundMe campaign, "William's Recovery and Transportation Fund," was established to help him acquire a new car and cover medical expenses. As of 2026-10-08T12:21:20+00:00, the fundraiser has raised over $16,595 towards its $18,000 goal, with donations aimed at providing essential transportation and covering living costs. Koroma expressed gratitude for the support, highlighting its importance in rebuilding his life and returning to work.
