On July 3, 2019, at approximately 8:54
p.m. deputies from the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office responded to the
21400 block of Abell Road in Avenue, for the reported motor vehicle collision
with entrapment. The operator of the vehicle, later identified as Daniel Edward
Haynie, age 25 of Abell, was extricated from the vehicle and flown to an area
trauma center with incapacitating injuries. The St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s
Office Collision Reconstruction Unit responded to the scene and continued the
investigation.
Preliminary investigation determined
Haynie was operating a 1998 Chevrolet Camaro on Abell Road, when the vehicle
left the roadway, and struck a pole. At this time speed appears to be a
contributing factor in the collision.
Anyone who witnessed the collision or events leading to the collision is
asked to contact Corporal Dale Reppel at (301) 475-4200 extension *8095, or by
