Cambodia prince injured in car crash
Ranariddh's sports utility vehicle was hit head on by a taxi driving in the opposite direction, Chuon Narin, police chief of the province of Preah Sihanouk, said.
The prince was taken in a helicopter for an emergency rescue in Phnom Penh,.
Ranariddh's wife, Ouk Phalla, 39, died in a hospital in Preah Sihanouk, Chuon Narin said, adding that both SUVs involved in the crash had been speeding.
Ranariddh, 73, is the son of the influential late monarch Norodom Sihanouk and is half-brother of the current King Norodom Sihamoni.
His turbulent political career included a return to politics in 2015 to lead the royalist Funcinpec party that ditched him years ago.
In 1997, he was overthrown as co-prime minister in a bloody coup and since his return to politics, had vowed to work with former rival and long-serving prime minister Hun Sen.
Cambodia's Supreme Court dissolved the main opposition Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP) last year, leaving the way clear for Hun Sen to extend more than three decades of rule in an election on July 29.
Ranariddh's Funcinpec was allocated most of the CNRP's parliamentary seats after its dissolution, and its leader, Kem Sokha, was arrested over accusations of plotting to take power with the help of the United States.
The CNRP and Washington have both denied the charges.

Former Cambodian Prime Minister Prince Norodom Ranariddh was seriously injured Sunday in a road crash that killed his wife and injured at least seven other people, officials said.
The 74-year-old Ranariddh was in a convoy along with senior figures of his FUNCINPEC party heading toward Sihanoukville in southwest Cambodia when a taxi traveling in the opposite direction slammed into his SUV, said a senior party member in the group.
Cambodia will hold a general election next month in which both Ranariddh and his wife were standing as candidates.
Watch Now
Sihanoukville police chief Gen. Chuon Narin said Ranariddh — a son of the late King Norodom Sihanouk — suffered head injuries. He was sent to Phnom Penh for urgent treatment. Chuon Narin said Ranariddh's wife, Ouk Phalla, died in a hospital.
Ranariddh was Cambodia's co-prime minister for four years in an uneasy power-sharing arrangement with current Prime Minister Hun Sen after his party won a United Nations-organized election in 1993. His party's popularity was largely due to its royalist credentials, although Ranariddh's personal relations with his popular father were often strained.
He was ousted in July 1997 and then fled abroad when long-simmering tensions between him and Hun Sen exploded into two days of bitter fighting in Phnom Penh between his forces and those loyal to Hun Sen.
Ranariddh was allowed to return to contest elections the following year but failed to repeat his success at the ballot. He slid into political irrelevancy, as FUNCINPEC became co-opted by Hun Sen, a much more savvy and tougher politician than Ranariddh.
Ranariddh is currently president of FUNCINPEC. The party holds 41 seats in the National Assembly, but only because seats held by the opposition Cambodia National Rescue Party were distributed to other parties after CNRP was dissolved.
The dissolution was widely seen as a maneuver to ensure an easy victory for Hun Sen in next month's general election, with parties contesting the polls generally seen as hopelessly weak or fronting for the ruling Cambodian People's Party so it can claim it ran a fair race by allowing opposition candidates.
Ranariddh is also president of the Supreme Privy Advisory Council to King Norodom Sihamoni, his half-brother.
Ouk Phalla, a classical Cambodian dancer reported to be descended from a separate royal family branch, was Ranariddh's second wife.
