At 3:18 p.m. Sept. 25, Calvert Sheriff’s Dfc. Todd Smith responded to the scene of a collision between a vehicle and a bicyclist on Md. Rt. 4 in the area of Whispering Drive.
Investigation revealed that a 1996 Chrysler Cirrus driven by Andrew J. Hall, 25 of St. Leonard, had been traveling southbound on Md. Rt. 4 approaching Whispering Drive when he fell asleep and ran off onto the shoulder of the road, colliding with a sign support pole.
The driver attempted to regain control of the vehicle when he swerved and struck the bicyclist, who was traveling northbound on the southbound shoulder. The bicyclist, KangMing Lin, 49, of Prince Frederick, was ejected upon impact.
He was treated at the scene by medics and then flown to Prince Georges County Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Charges against Hall are pending.
