A Carroll County woman and a Florida man died yesterday when their cars collided about noon on Route 97 just north of Route 32 in the Westminster area, state police said.
The 77-year-old Westminster woman, Maizie Delancey of Rainbow Drive, was southbound in a 1999 Honda Accord when she crossed the center line, striking a northbound 2006 Ford Mustang driven by Ernest Scheuer, 64, of Kissimmee, Fla., according to state police from the Westminster barracks.
Both drivers, who were alone in their vehicles, died at the scene, police said.
Police closed both lanes of Route 97 for about two hours while they investigated the accident.
