Driver in custody after stolen U Haul hits multiple vehicles in Montgomery County, police say

A driver is in custody after a stolen U‑Haul truck struck several vehicles across Montgomery County on Friday morning, according to police. The incident began Thursday when the truck was reported stolen. Officers were first called Friday to Strathmore Road and Rockville Pike in Bethesda, where the U‑Haul reportedly hit a vehicle and continued driving. Investigators say the truck’s front wheel came off near Nicholson Lane, where it struck another vehicle. The driver kept going until the truck became disabled after a collision at Josiah Henson Parkway and East Jefferson Street as it crossed Montrose Road. Police say the woman behind the wheel got out and ran but was arrested a short time later in the 1700 block of East Jefferson Street near Federal Plaza. No injuries were reported. The case remains under investigation.
