LEONARDTOWN, MD (December 15, 2025) - On Saturday, December 13, 2025, at around 4:48 p.m., patrol units from the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to a serious motor vehicle collision in the area of Three Notch Road and Cedar Grove Street in Mechanicsville.
The preliminary investigation indicates that a 2019 white Chevrolet Impala, operated by Orrin Stacy, 35, of Mechanicsville, was traveling eastbound on Cedar Grove Street and attempted to turn left onto Three Notch Road. The vehicle failed to yield the right of way, crossed into the southbound lanes of Three Notch Road, and was struck by a 2002 Yamaha YZF600R Motorcycle, operated by Darius Jackson-Jordan, 26, of Drayden.
The driver of the motorcycle was transported by Maryland State Police Aviation Command Trooper 7 to an area trauma center with life-threatening injuries, where he is currently listed in critical condition.
Currently, speed does not appear to be a factor in the collision.
Due to the severity of the crash, the Collision Reconstruction Unit responded and assumed the investigation. Anyone who witnessed the crash or events leading up to it and has not already provided a statement is asked to contact Corporal Rachael Owens at 301-475-4200, ext. 8108, or at rachael.owens@stmaryscountymd.gov.
