Montgomery County Council President Marilyn Praisner is in intensive care after two auto accidents near her Burtonsville home.

County police say Praisner's car was involved in a minor collision with another car at about 9 a.m. Friday on Spencerville Road. About 15 minutes later, her car crashed on Briggs Chaney Road, clipping a tree and turning on its side.

Police are investigating the cause of the accident.

She's in intensive care at Suburban Hospital, though her injuries aren't considered life-threatening. Council spokesman Neil Greenberger says the 65-year-old is alert and communicating.
