A high-speed crash late Sunday night claimed the life of an 18-year-old driver near Dumfries, while three others sustained injuries, authorities reported.

Prince William County crash investigators responded to the scene at Route 234 and Van Buren Road intersection at 10:36 p.m. on Sunday, February 16, where they found a two-vehicle collision involving a 2013 Audi A7 and a 2024 Cadillac Escalade.

According to the preliminary investigation, the Audi driver was traveling eastbound on Dumfries Road at a speed above the posted limit when the vehicle crossed the median into oncoming traffic. The Audi then collided with the Cadillac, heading in the opposite direction.

Emergency responders pronounced the driver of the Audi deceased at the scene. Authorities have identified him as 18-year-old Mihai-Mario Stoica, of Woodbridge. A 25-year-old male passenger in the Audi sustained injuries and was transported to a local hospital for treatment.

The driver of the Cadillac, an 18-year-old man from Woodbridge, along with a 32-year-old male passenger, were also hospitalized with varying injuries.

Police have not yet determined the cause of the crash, beyond the fact that speed was a factor. Crash investigators are seeking additional witnesses and have urged anyone with information about the incident to contact authorities.

The investigation remains ongoing.

The police department highlighted the role of community members, businesses, and sponsors who contributed by joining teams or making donations. Team PWCPD also took part in the plunge to show their support.

The Polar Plunge is part of a nationwide initiative, with law enforcement agencies across the U.S. and 45 countries backing Special Olympics programs.

The Prince William County Sheriff’s Office, Manassas, and Manassas Park police departments also participated in the event.

Law enforcement and emergency responders in Prince William County, Stafford County, and the City of Manassas handled multiple incidents over the past several days, including a house fire that displaced a family in Woodbridge, two shooting investigations, drug-related arrests, and a series of disturbances and crimes.
