PARKVILLE, MD — Police said a driver died after he crashed into a parked car less than 0.3 mile from his home Sunday evening in Parkville, causing two additional crashes.

Curtis Terrell Cooper, 39, of the 8600 block of Oakleigh Road, was pronounced deceased at the scene, officials said.

According to investigators, Cooper rear-ended a van with his 2006 Scion xA around 5:30 p.m. as he was driving south on Oakleigh Road near Putty Hill Avenue. The van was pushed into the back of a 2011 Chevrolet Malibu, officials reported.
