BERLIN, Md.- Police are investigating a Thursday morning crash that claimed the life of a Berlin woman.
The Worcester County Sheriff's Office said that shortly after 6 p.m., the driver of a 2003 Chevrolet Suburban, identified as 55-year-old Laura Widgeon of Berlin, was traveling west on Cedar Lane Road, west of Evans Road, when she crossed the center line of the road and then overcorrected and entered the westbound shoulder. The vehicle began to rotate and then overturned. Police said Widgeon was not wearing her seatbelt and was ejected from the vehicle.
Investigators said Widgeon suffered traumatic injuries when she was ejected and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Alcohol consumption appears to be a contributing factor to the crash, according to police. The Worcester County Collision Reconstruction Unit is still investigating the incident.
