Investigation revealed an elderly woman had plowed into a home in her neigborhood along the 45600 block of Edge Mill Court in Great Mills. She mentioned her car was malfunctioning.
The woman was not seriously injured and signed a refusal of treatment.
Moments later, a call when out for a personal injury accident in the 21300 block of Three Notch Road in Lexington Park near the intersection of South Hampton.
