Man killed, two injured in I-95 hit-and-run in Harford County

BALTIMORE -- A 19-year-old man was killed and two other people were injured after a car struck them on I-95 in Harford County before fleeing the crash site, Maryland State Police said. 

Troopers responded to southbound I-95 near Aberdeen for a crash involving pedestrians around 2:15 a.m. Thursday. Police say that 19-year-old Guiermo Che of Philadelphia was pronounced dead at the crash site.

The two other victims were hospitalized in unknown condition, according to authorities. 

Investigators believe the three people were on the shoulder of the road putting gas into a vehicle when a white sedan, believed to be a 2013-2017 Audi A5 or S5 with tinted windows, veered into the shoulder and struck them. 

Rick Reed of Virginia noted that people are supposed to slow down and move over, but sometimes they don't do that.

Another driver expressed remorse for yet another deadly accident.

"Be careful pulling over to the side of the road." Horraine McPherson said. "You know, I see people stop on the side of the road and they think it's something you can do casually. It's very dangerous."

The Audi was last seen getting off of I-95 South at Exit 85. Police said it may have damage to the right front bumper, headlight and fog light.

Anyone with information on the case is asked to contact the police at 410-537-1150.
