PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. — Police are investigating after a serious crash in Prince William County left one person seriously injured and another dead.

Officers were called to the intersection of Dumfries Road and Country Club Drive around 8:30 a.m. Thursday. 

The subsequent investigation revealed the driver of a 2018 Ford F-150 was traveling northbound on Dumfries Road approaching the intersection of Country Club Drive when police say the driver disregarded a red traffic signal and continued into the intersection. The F-150 then struck a 2018 Lexus E300H that was within the intersection making a left turn from Country Club Drive onto Dumfries Road. The impact of the crash pushed the Lexus into the southbound lanes. The driver of the Lexus - identified as 76-year-old Marvin Floom of Dumfries - was taken to a local hospital and died as a result of his injuries.
