Update: The victims are identified as 21-year-old O’Sha Marquis Allen of the 7900 block of Heatherleigh Place in White Plains, MD, and 18-year-old Daryl Deon Davis of the 3200 block of 75th Avenue in Landover.
The
Prince George’s County Police Department’s Collision Analysis and
Reconstruction Unit is investigating a double fatal collision in Landover.
The crash occurred just as the snow started falling today. While
the snow hadn't begun to stick to the roadways, the road was wet at the time.
Preliminarily, it appears the wet conditions and speed played a role in
the crash.
On
January 21, 2014, at about 11:10 am, patrol officers were called to the 2700
block of Pennsy Drive for a crash involving a car and a taxi. A passenger
in the car died on the scene. The driver died at a hospital. The
taxi driver suffered non-life threatening injuries.
The
preliminary investigation reveals the taxi was heading northbound on Pennsy
Drive and the car was traveling southbound. For reasons which remain
unclear, the car lost control and crossed into the northbound lane, colliding
with the taxi.
