A young child died in a crash in Bladensburg Thursday evening.
A southbound SUV on Bladensburg Road clipped a car, causing it to spin out of control and leave the roadway. It struck a telephone pole and a tree before coming to a stop.
A child in the car was pronounced dead.
The man driving the car and another child in it were taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Both children are under the age of 8, News4's Shomari Stone reported.
No one in the car that was clipped was injured.
Speed may be a cause of the crash, according to preliminary information.
