ย At 1:15 p.m. Sunday, police and volunteer rescuers responded to a vehicle crash on US Route 301 at Marshall Corner Road (Route 227).

ย A red pickup driven by a female was heading north on Route 301, when she apparently ran a red light at Marshall Corner Road, and struck an SUV broadside in driver’s door as it traveled through the intersection on the green.

ย Volunteer firefighters had to cut the door off the SUV to get the driver out.

ย He was flown by Maryland State Police helicopter to a regional trauma center. Two other passengers in the SUV were transported by ambulance to Civista Medical Center with minor injuries.

ย The investigation is being conducted by the Maryland State Police.
