D’Ambra was the rear-seat passenger in a white 2002 Ford Mustang that was traveling east on Wistar Road when the driver lost control and struck a tree, police said.

Investigators said the Mustang was traveling at a “high rate of speed” when it crashed.

D’Ambra was rushed to St. Mary Medical Center in Middletown Township, where she was pronounced dead.

The 17-year-old male driver from Levittown and a 17-year-old male front-seat passenger, who is also from Levittown, were injured and taken to St. Mary Medical Center. Their conditions were stable Sunday night, but an update on their current condition was not released as of Wednesday.

Flowers were laid at the crash scene Tuesday as a tribute.

Ron Smith, a friend of D’Ambra, shared his thoughts with Fox 29.

“She was an amazing person, always really respectful of me, nice to me. It’s just unfortunate, so I thought I’d come here, check it out, show some respect and hope that this doesn’t happen again,” he said.

The police investigation into the crash is ongoing.

Investigators are asking anyone with information to contact Officer Kenneth Margerum at 267-812-2991 or the non-emergency police number at 215-785-4040.
