The crash occurred on Oct. 26 just before 6:30 a.m. at the intersection of Lake Acworth Drive and Kemp Ridge Road.

Police said the crash occurred after a driver stopped at a stop sign and failed to yield before pulling into oncoming traffic.

According to police, 45-year-old Daryl Cooke of Dallas was traveling north on Kemp Ridge Road in a blue 2021 Toyota Camry.

Cooke stopped at a stop sign and tried to cross Lake Acworth Drive, pulling into the path of an eastbound black 2026 Ford F-150 driven by 58-year-old Adren Mathna of Dallas.

The front of the Toyota hit the right side of the Ford. A third vehicle, a black 2025 Hyundai Elantra driven by 38-year-old Ashlee Warwick of Kernersville, N.C., was stopped in the westbound left-turn lane on Lake Acworth Drive during the crash.

Mathna initially refused medical treatment at the scene before dying three days later, on Oct. 29. Neither Cooke nor Warwick was injured.

The Cobb County Police Department is assisting the Acworth Police Department with the investigation.

The crash remains under investigation. Authorities ask anyone with information regarding the crash to contact the Cobb County Police Department at 770-499-3987.
