A 73-year-old Adams County woman died Sunday when a dump truck crossed over and crashed into her vehicle on a Maryland road, police said.

Littlestown resident Sandra Stigler was driving a Dodge Ram pickup truck south on the 3000 block of the Littlestown Pike in Carroll County when the crash happened around 1:30 p.m., according to Maryland State Police.

Police said a northbound dump truck crossed into Stigler’s lane for unknown reasons and crashed into Stigler’s pickup.

Stigler was pronounced dead at the scene, police said. The dump truck’s driver — a 52-year-old man from Manchester, Maryland — was not hurt.

Littlestown Pike was shut down for about four hours after the crash.

The Maryland State Police Crash Team is investigating and will do a post-crash inspection of the dump truck.
