SYKESVILLE, Md. — A crash involving three cars Sunday afternoon left a man dead, according to Howard County police.
Around 12:56 p.m., police say a 2014 Honda CRV was traveling southbound on Route 32 near the Carroll County line when a 2019 Ford Edge crashed into the Honda while attempting to make a left turn from northbound Route 32 toward West Friendship Road.
The driver of the Honda has since died and was identified as 70-year-old Arthur Henry Landerman Jr., from Sykesville. Landerman was taken to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center, but was pronounced dead upon arrival, police said.
The driver of the Ford, another man from Sykesville, was also taken to Shock Trauma, but with non-life-threatening injuries. Police have not identified him.
A third car was also hit as a result of the initial crash, but the driver was not injured.
Route 32 was closed for around four hours as a result of the incident. Police said that the investigation is still ongoing as of Sunday evening.
