On Sunday, Sept. 14, 2014 at approximately 8:45 p.m., members of the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office Patrol Bureau and Crash Reconstruction Team responded to Maryland Route 2/4 and Rousby Hall Road, Lusby for a report of a motor vehicle collision involving a motorcycle. 

Upon arrival on the scene units located a blue 2012 Ford Focus on the northbound shoulder of Route 2/4 just north of the intersection. The Ford Focus was heavily damaged.  A 2005 Harley Davidson motorcycle was destroyed and located on its side against the northbound guardrail. The vehicles were involved in an apparent head-on collision.  The motorcycle’s operator and passenger were both ejected from the cycle during the collision.  

Preliminary investigation revealed the motorcycle, operated by Rudolph Mason Johnson of Lusby, was traveling southbound on Route 2/4 and attempted to turn eastbound on Rousby Hall Road on a flashing red arrow. The motorcycle was also occupied by Mona Rene Johnson of Lusby.

As the motorcycle entered the intersection of Route 2/4 and Rousby Hall Road, a 2012 Ford Fusion, operated by Lauren Rebecca Belskie of St. Leonard, was traveling northbound on Route 2/4 and collided with the motorcycle.  Numerous witness accounts indicated the driver of the Ford had a green light at the time of the collision.

Lauren Rebecca Belskie sustained minor injuries during the collision and was transported to the Calvert Memorial Hospital.  Belskie is listed in stable condition. 

Rudolph Johnson was transported to Prince George’s County Hospital Shock Trauma to be treated for the injuries sustained in a collision. 

Mona Johnson was transported to Washington Hospital Center MedStar to be treated for the injuries she sustained in the collision. 
Both Rudolph and Mona Johnson are listed in critical condition at the time of this press release.

Motorcycle operator error and failure to yield the right of way to a through traveling vehicle are the contributing factors to this collision. The final cause of the collision is pending full investigation.      

Dfc. G. Gott, of the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office, is investigating the collision with assistance from the Crash Reconstruction Team.
