On April 2, 2023, at 12:49 pm, Northern District officers responded to a traffic crash on southbound Ritchie Highway and Marley Station Road, Glen Burnie MD. The investigation revealed a 2008 Toyota Tundra was traveling southbound on Ritchie Hwy approaching this intersection when according to witnesses, it failed to stop for a steady red traffic signal. As the Tundra entered the intersection, it first struck a 2007 Chevrolet Equinox that was turning left into the Marley Station Mall. A 2013 BMW was also turning left into the Marley Station Mall and was struck by both the Toyota Tundra and the Chevrolet Equinox.

As a result of the collision, the driver of the Tundra sustained life-threatening injuries and was transported to Bayview Hospital in Baltimore for treatment. A 13-year-old male passenger in the Tundra was transported to Baltimore Washington Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries. The driver of the Equinox was transported to the R. Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore with serious but non-life-threatening injuries. A passenger in the Equinox was pronounced dead at the scene by Anne Arundel County Fire personnel.
