Crash Kills 94-Year-Old Pasadena Man, Hospitalizes Woman, 90

PASADENA, MD — A crash in Pasadena killed an older man Wednesday afternoon. Police say the man, Richard Cole Jones, was 94. The accident hospitalized two other people, including the man's 90-year-old female passenger, with serious injuries.

The collision happened around 3:45 p.m. at the intersection of Edwin Raynor Boulevard and Maryland Route 100. A pickup truck was heading north on Edwin Raynor when Jones' sedan emerged from the eastbound exit ramp of Route 100.

Jones crossed the path of the incoming 2009 Ford F-150 with his 2003 Honda Accord. A police report says the cause of the crash appears to be Jones' failure to yield to the truck. Speed does not seem to be a factor, police say.

The driver of the truck, 59, was uninjured, but medics took her 60-year-old passenger to the University of Maryland Baltimore Washington Medical Center in Glen Burnie. The 90-year-old woman went to the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center in Baltimore.

Jones was pronounced dead on the scene. All of the people involved are from Pasadena.

The results of his autopsy and the toxicology tests are still pending. The Traffic Safety Section of the Anne Arundel County Police Department is Investigating the accident.
