Mother of 2-Month-Old Girl Dies in 'Tragic Accident' After Being 'Ejected' from Golf Cart: Police

The mother of a 2-month-old girl has died in Maryland two days after she was injured in a tragic incident involving a golf cart, police said.

On Saturday, Nov. 9, at approximately 7:24 p.m. local time, Anne Arundel County Police Department officers were called to an address in Annapolis to help assist an injured person, according to a news release.

"A preliminary investigation revealed that Mary Blasetti had sustained life-threatening injuries in an incident involving an E-Z-GO golf cart," police said.

They added that Blasetti was "airlifted to the University of Maryland R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center" before dying from her injuries on Monday, Nov. 11.

Police identified Blasetti, 32, of Annapolis as the passenger in the cart but didn't name the driver of the vehicle, who was listed as a 32-year-old female from Crownsville.

"It appears at a certain point they hit some sort of a dip, and at that point, that passenger was ejected from that golf cart or thrown from the golf cart," the Anne Arundel County Police Department's Justin Mulcahy said of the incident, according to CBS station WJZ.

"This is an extremely tragic, unfortunate situation," Mulcahy continued. "Our hearts go out to everyone impacted and we're going to continue investigating it with the State's Attorney's Office just to determine what exactly happened here."

Mulcahy didn't immediately respond when contacted by PEOPLE for additional information.

Loved ones started a GoFundMe confirming Blasetti had been involved in "a tragic accident," adding that she "leaves behind her husband, Nick Blasetti, and their 2-month-old daughter, Mary Katharine Blasetti."

"Mary Beth brought joy to so many and had a wide community of friends and family who are devastated by her sudden passing. She was a devoted wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend, and her absence will be deeply felt by all who knew her," organizers wrote in the GoFundMe.
