Two men died Thursday after the car they were in and a sport-utility vehicle collided in Prince George's County, authorities said.

The men were identified as brothers Jamal Rashad Hubert, 19, of Fort Washington and Tirrell Malik Hubert, 18, of Upper Marlboro, said Sgt. John Green of the Maryland State Pollice.

Jamal Hubert was driving, Green said, and the car spun out of control and into an oncoming lane of traffic, where it was struck broadside by a Toyota SUV.

The accident occurred about 2 p.m. on Route 202 near White House Road near Landover, said Mark Brady, chief spokesman for the Prince George's County fire department.

Firefighters used the "jaws of life" to free the men from the Chevrolet sedan, Brady said.

The men were taken to Prince George's Hospital Center, where they were pronounced dead, police said.

Two people in the SUV -- a man and a woman who appeared to be in their 50s -- were also taken to a hospital with injuries that did not appear to be life-threatening, officials said.
