Three car crash kills one in Damascus


A three-car collision claimed the life of one driver and seriously injured another in Damascus Monday night, March 2, 2026. According to police, the driver of a Toyota Camry was traveling northbound on Ridge Road (Route 27) at a high rate of speed. Just past Sweepstakes Drive, he allegedly struck a Lexus NX350, and was ejected onto the roadway. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Lexus driver was transported to a local hospital with serious injuries that were not believed to be life-threatening. She was trapped in her vehicle and had to be extricated by first responders. A Ford Fusion was also involved in the collision. Police did not specify the manner in which it became involved, but confirmed that the Fusion driver was uninjured. Another tragic reminder that Montgomery County has failed to build the Damascus Bypass.
