PRINCE FREDERICK, Md. – The Independent Investigations Division (IID) of the Maryland Office of the Attorney General is investigating a fatal police-involved collision that occurred on December 12, 2025, in Prince Frederick, Calvert County, Maryland.
The preliminary investigation revealed on Friday, December 12, 2025, at approximately 12:30 a.m., a deputy with the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office (CCSO) observed a Nissan sedan drive past his cruiser in the 500 block of Rt 4/Solomons Island Rd.
The deputy followed the Nissan and turned on his emergency equipment in an attempt to stop the Nissan for a traffic violation in the area of Prince Frederick Road and Calvert Hills Road. The driver of the Nissan did not stop, and the deputy continued following the Nissan. Approximately one mile after the attempted car stop, the Nissan entered the intersection of Stoakley Road and Rt 4 and struck a Honda sedan driven by an adult woman. A third vehicle, a Kia SUV, was struck in the collision.
The female driver of the Honda was transported to a local hospital where she was pronounced dead. The driver and passenger of the Kia were transported to a local hospital and treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
The driver of the Nissan was taken into custody and transported to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The involved deputy was equipped with body-worn camera.
The IID, with assistance from the Maryland State Police Crash Team, is investigating the circumstances leading up to the collision. Anyone with information about this investigation is asked to contact the IID at (410) 576-7070 or by email at IID@oag.state.md.us.
The IID will generally release the name of the decedent and any involved officers within two business days of the incident, although that period may be extended, if necessary, pursuant to IID protocol.
IID will generally release body-worn camera footage within 20 business days of an incident. There may be situations where more than 20 days is necessary, including if investigators need more time to complete witness interviews, if there are technical delays caused by the need to shield the identities of civilian witnesses, or to allow family members to view the video before it is released to the public.
The person fleeing will get slap on the wrist, nothing more, it’s maryland
I won’t say that. A lady was killed. That is not something they let go easily. Death changes everything.
It’s Maryland, bet they will get 20 years at the most, out on good behavior in about 7
The driver of the Nissan should be charged with Vehicular Manslaughter in addition to the traffic violations. Put him away for at least 50 years.
THE male , operator of the Nissan, Savon Q. Samuel, age 32 of Pikesville, Maryland, is currently held on a no bond status for felony negligent manslaughter. Court documents reveal Samuel has an extensive criminal traffic record and indictments related to traffic citations for incidents that occurred in Baltimore County.
we have to abide by the constitution no matter what the case. I am putting this out here because the court of public opinion can be a jerk and WRONG.
Shouldn’t chase. Other counties don’t why can’t they just take the plate and go to the guy’s house. A woman lost her life. There is blood on the hands of the commissioners and sheriffs. Stop this dumb pursue at all costs bs there is a reason others don’t do it.
Tony, care to think about that? Getting a tag and going to their home is useless when many of the cars are stolen. Sit down and stop being a liberal! It’s time we put the blame on the criminals instead of on cops doing their job!
Totally agree.
Totally agree.
