Suandin Gregorio Lopez, 22, and Darwin Jose Centre Lopez, 29, both of Annapolis, suffered serious injuries on Sunday, Dec. 11 in a rollover crash in Davidsonville, according to the Anne Arundel County Police Department.
Investigators say that at approximately 12:30 p.m. on Sunday afternoon, a 1995 Mitsubishi 3000 driven by Gregorio Lopez was traveling east on Defense Highway (MD Route 450) near St. Stephens Church Road when he lost control on a sharp curve in the roadway and struck a guardrail.
