Mechanicsville Woman Killed in Crash

On March 19, 2020 at approximately 1:29 am, St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office patrol deputies responded to a single motor vehicle collision with CPR in progress at the 39000 block of Golden Beach Road in Charlotte Hall. Due to the injuries sustained, the Sheriff’s Office Collision Reconstruction Unit responded to the scene.

Preliminary investigation determined a 2019 Nissan Sentra, operated by Christina Marie Maier, 30 of Mechanicsville, was traveling north on Golden Beach Road when the vehicle lost control around a curve in the roadway. Maier overcorrected the steering, left the roadway and struck a ditch and then a tree, which overturned the vehicle. Maier was transported to University of Maryland Charles Regional Medical Center in La Plata via ambulance with lifesaving measures performed. Maier was later pronounced deceased by medical personnel.

At this time, both speed and alcohol appear to be contributing factors in the collision. Anyone who may have witnessed the collision or any events leading up to it are asked to call DFC Rachael Roszell at 301-475-4200, ext. *8108 or email rachael.roszell@stmarysmd.com.

Fatal Motor Vehicle Collision Under Investigation



On March 12, 2020, at approximately 11:13 a.m. deputies from the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office responded to the 24700 block of Three Notch Road, in the area of Sotterley Road, in Hollywood, for the reported motor vehicle collision.  Deputies arrived on scene and located two vehicles involved in the collision.  The St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office Collision Reconstruction Unit responded to the scene and continued the investigation.

Preliminary investigation determined a 2016 Ford Escape operated by Jack Martin Hughes, age 79, of Mechanicsville, was traveling north on Three Notch Road, when for unknown reasons Hughes stopped in the roadway while the traffic light was green. A 2004 International truck operated by Norman Lawrence Buckler, age 36, of Mechanicsville, was unable to stop and struck the rear of Hughes’ vehicle.  Emergency personnel removed Hughes from the vehicle and attempted life-saving measures on scene. Hughes was transported to MedStar St. Mary’s Hospital where he was pronounced deceased. No incapacitating injuries were reported for Buckler.

At this time, speed and alcohol do not appear to be contributing factors in the collision. Anyone who witnessed the collision or events leading to the collision, is asked to contact Deputy First Class Jason Smith at (301) 475-4200 extension 72328 or by email at Jason.Smith@stmarysmd.com.
