A deadly crash in Germantown involved seven children between the ages of 12 and 15, according to Montgomery County police.
Police say a 13-year-old boy was driving a stolen Kia Optima with six other juveniles inside when it collided with another vehicle near Clopper Road and Great Seneca Highway around 5:25 Tuesday morning.
The other driver, 58-year-old William Vance Payne II, was pronounced dead at the scene. Payne was a father of five and had worked as a mechanical engineer at the National Institute of Standards and Technology for nearly 30 years.
