1 Dead, 3 Hospitalized After Route 100 Multi-Vehicle Crash: Police

GLEN BURNIE, MD — A multi-vehicle crash in Glen Burnie left one person dead and sent three people to the hospital, county police announced Friday.

Officers identified the late victim as 23-year-old Jason Tyler Crawford of Severn.

Authorities said Crawford was driving a 2002 Honda Accord EX sedan west on Maryland Route 100 near the Interstate 97 overpass around 7:30 p.m. on Thursday.

Police said the driver lost control of the Honda Accord for unknown reasons, and the sedan hit a concrete traffic barrier.

A 2005 Toyota Corolla sedan swerved to avoid striking the Honda Accord and ran into a concrete traffic barrier on the opposite side of the roadway, officers said.

Authorities said a 2018 Ford F-150 pickup truck and an unknown vehicle slowed to a stop to block traffic in both lanes.

Police said the front-seat passenger of the unknown vehicle left the vehicle to help the driver of the Honda Accord, which was the first to crash.

A 1999 Honda Civic sedan heading west hit the back of the Ford F-150 and swerved around it on the left shoulder, officers said.

Authorities said the same Honda Civic continued west and then struck the Honda Accord.

That Honda Civic also hit the pedestrian who was standing outside the Honda Accord and helping its driver, police said.

Officers said the driver of the Honda Accord was pronounced dead on the scene.

Authorities said Anne Arundel County Fire Department paramedics took the driver of the Toyota Corolla, the pedestrian and the driver of the Honda Civic to the University of Maryland Baltimore Washington Medical Center in Glen Burnie. They all suffered minor injuries.

The driver of the Ford F-150 was not hurt.

The Anne Arundel County Police Department is still investigating.
