ROCKVILLE, MD. (WUSA9)

A violent overnight crash in Rockville killed one woman and seriously injured a driver.

Two cars crashed on Muncaster Mill Road just north of Bowie Mill Road around 11:30 Sunday night, says Captain Paul Starks, spokesman for the Montgomery County Police Department.

A preliminary investigation indicates a man driving a black 2014 Ford Focus was traveling southbound on Muncaster Mill Road south of Olde Mill Run when his vehicle inexplicably collided with a white Ford Taurus that was heading north.

According to Capt. Starks, a woman driving the Taurus died at the scene. Juan Francisco Diana, 34, of Silver Spring, was behind the wheel of the black Focus.

He was taken to Suburban Hospital with serious, but non-life-threatening injuries.

The identity of the woman who was killed will be released once next of kin have been notified.

Montgomery Co. Police detectives continue to investigate the crash. Anyone who may have witnessed the collision is asked to contact the Collision Reconstruction Unit at 240-773-6620. Callers may remain anonymous.
