MOTOR VEHICLE CRASH INVOLVING SHERIFF'S OFFICE DEPUTY

    On September 23, 2017 at approximately 3:05 a.m. Deputy First Class (DFC) Vaughn Evans notified the Calvert County Control Center, via radio, that he had been involved in a serious crash southbound Rt. 4 in the area of Mr. Tire. Numerous police units responded to the scene of the crash and located a Ford Ranger overturned in the turn lane along northbound Rt. 4 near the Kenmar Liquor store.  Deputy First Class Evans’ marked Chevrolet Caprice was located near the northern most entrance to Mr. Tire in the median. Both vehicles were severely damaged.

    DFC Evans was removed from his vehicle by volunteer firefighter and EMS crews. Volunteers from the Prince Frederick Volunteer Fire Department, the Prince Frederick Volunteer Rescue Squad and the Huntingtown Volunteer Fire Department responded to the crash scene to assist.  DFC Evans was flown to Baltimore Shock Trauma, via Trooper 2, where he was assessed by a team of medical professionals and later released.

    The operator of the Ford Ranger was entrapped in the vehicle and was pronounced deceased on the scene.  The operator’s name is not being released at this time to allow the proper notifications to be made by family members.  The State Highway Administration responded to the area and directed traffic around the scene since both lanes of Rt. 4 were shut down.

    Due to the severity of the crash, the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office Crash Reconstruction Team was called to the scene to conduct the investigation.  The crash was determined to be a head on offset type collision. The point of impact was in lane 1 of southbound Rt. 4. DFC Evans’s vehicle was south of the point of impact which was consistent with him travelling south on Rt. 4. The Ford Ranger was north of the point of impact which was also consistent with him travelling in a northerly direction. It is unknown as to why the Ford Ranger had been travelling north in southbound lane 1 of Rt. 4 when the crash occurred.  Two witnesses were identified at the scene and gave statements as to what they saw.  Impairment is not believed to be a cause of the crash at this time.


    Anyone who may have witnessed the crash or might have information that would assist with this investigation is asked to contact DFC Jeff Hardesty at 410-535-2800 or email jeff.hardesty@calvertcountymd.gov

NEW TRAFFIC PATTERN IMPROVES SAFETY ENTERING & EXITING HALLOWING POINT PARK

PRINCE FREDERICK, Md. – Sept. 22, 2017 – The Calvert County Department of Parks and Recreation and the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office announce a new weekend traffic pattern for exiting Hallowing Point Park in Prince Frederick.
Effective immediately, all motorists must turn right on MD Route 231 when exiting Hallowing Point Park Saturdays and Sundays during park hours. Motorists wanting to travel east toward Prince Frederick will be directed to turn right onto Skipjack Road at the Calvert Industrial Center, go around the circle on Skipjack Road and return to the traffic light on Route 231 to turn left. Signs were put in place today to direct motorists on the new traffic pattern.
“More than one thousand families utilize Hallowing Point Park on the weekends, especially now during fall youth sports,” explained Department of Parks and Recreation Director Shannon Nazzal. “This change is necessary to ensure everyone’s safety until a permanent solution can be put in place.”
“As with any change in traffic patterns, we urge drivers to use caution this weekend and every weekend as we all adjust,” said Sheriff Mike Evans. “Unfortunately, last weekend  a deputy received minor injuries after being struck while directing traffic at the entrance to the park. These measures will help to keep the intersection safe while we seek a more long-term solution.”
Nazzal said she is working with county and state officials to look into the possibility of installing a traffic signal at the current entrance of the park, or securing a second point of entry and exit.
