Woman killed in wrong way crash with tractor-trailer on I-95 in White Marsh Sunday

A wrong way two-vehicle crash on I-95 Sunday left one woman dead and roads closed for hours in Baltimore County.

Around 4 a.m., state police received reports of a vehicle speeding in the wrong direction on I-95 South in White Marsh. State troopers from the JFK Memorial Highway Barrack responded to the crash.

Authorities said a 2009 Acura sedan, driven by Courtney Dunston, was traveling north in the southbound lanes on I-95. The Acura eventually crashed head-on with a tractor-trailer near exit 67 in White Marsh.

The driver of the tractor-trailer, who was not identified, was not injured, but Dunston, 29, was pronounced dead at the scene. Roads were closed for about five hours as several agencies dealt with the crash.

The cause of the crash is under investigation, however state police say excessive speed and alcohol impairment may have contributed to it.

Anyone with information on the crash is asked to contact Corporal Adam Siemek at adam.siemek@maryland.gov.
