A Severn woman was killed in a three-car collision in Hanover caused by an intoxicated Columbia driver, Anne Arundel County police said Monday.
Soon Youn Livingston, 53, was pronounced dead at the scene after she was trapped in her vehicle in the crash Saturday on Aviation Boulevard.
Police said Jason Bukovsky, of the 5600 block of Columbia Road, was heading south on Aviation Boulevard just north of Dorsey Road in his Jeep Wrangler around 2:20 p.m. Saturday when he drifted off the road and struck a guardrail.
Police said he steered sharply to the left to get back on the road but crossed over the center line into the northbound lanesand collided head-on with Livingston?s 1994 Honda Accord.
Livingston?s car went off the road and was struck on its underside by a third vehicle, a 2004 Dodge Ram, that also had been northbound on Aviation Boulevard. Livingston?s car was pushed up onto the hood of the pickup truck before both came to a stop.
Bukovsky?s Jeep spun around until coming to a stop in the middle of northbound Aviation Boulevard.
Livingston died at the scene. Her front-seat passenger, Michael Graham, 16, also of Severn, was transported to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore with serious injuries.
The driver of the pickup, Phyllis Mooney, 45, of the 2800 block of Louisiana Avenue in Halethorpe, and Bukovsky also were taken to Shock Trauma for minor injuries. Mooney has been released.
Police said alcohol use by Bukovsky was a cause of the collision, but they have not released whether he was given a field sobriety test or Breathalyzer. The investigation is continuing, and charges are pending.
