Vehicle #1 struck vehicle #2 head-on, flipped onto the roof and slid approximately 100yards. Vehicle# 3, also northbound on Solley Rd behind vehicle #2, was unable to stop in time and was sideswiped by vehicle #1 and also struck vehicle #2.
The drivers of vehicle #1 and vehicle #2 were both declared dead at the scene by Fire Department personnel. The passengers from vehicle #1 and #2, with serious injuries, were taken to Shock Trauma. The occupants of vehicle #3 were taken to Baltimore Washington Medical Center with minor injuries.
