On December 7, 2019, at approximately
11:08 a.m., deputies from the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office responded to
the 38100 block of Golden Beach Road in Charlotte Hall, for the reported motor
vehicle collision. Deputies arrived on scene
and located a Ford F-150 and a Chevrolet Cobalt in the roadway. The St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office
Accident Reconstruction Unit responded to the scene and continued the investigation.
Preliminary investigation determined the
Ford F-150 operated by Paul Andrew Hamby, age 55 of Mechanicsville, was
traveling northbound on Golden Beach Road, when the Chevrolet Cobalt, operated
by Noah Andrew Stathers, age 19 of Mechanicsville, entered the roadway.
Stathers attempted to make a left-hand turn onto Golden Beach Road and was
struck by the Ford F-150. Stathers and a juvenile
front-seat passenger were transported via helicopter to area trauma centers with
incapacitating injuries. Hamby was not transported to a medical facility from
the scene.
At this time, speed and alcohol do not
appear to be factors in the collision.
Anyone who witnessed the collision
is asked to contact Deputy Shawn Shelko at (301) 475-4200 extension *8147 or by
email at Shawn.Shelko@stmarysmd.com.
