1 dead, 2 injured after shooting on I-70 in Frederick County
A man is dead, and two others were injured after a shooting on I-70 in Frederick County on Saturday evening, according to Maryland State Police.
Around 11:55 p.m. on June 14, troopers responded to the 600 block of Lakeview Drive in Mount Airy for a report of a shooting on eastbound I-70, just before Maryland Route 27.
When they arrived, they found a 2018 GMC Sierra pickup truck at the scene. Eduardo Alexander Alvarado Urrea, 20, of Silver Spring, and five others had been inside the pickup truck at the time of the shooting.
Urrea was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver, whose identity has not been released, was taken to a trauma center with gunshot injuries.
One passenger was evaluated at the scene but declined medical treatment. The three other individuals reported no injuries.
Police said a preliminary investigation revealed the victims were struck by gunfire from another vehicle while traveling east on I-70, not long after leaving an event at the Frederick Fairgrounds.
Police are asking anyone with dashcam footage on eastbound I-70 in Frederick County between 11:30 p.m. and midnight to contact the Frederick Barrack at 301-600-4150. Anyone with information on the shooting is also asked to contact police.

Powerball jackpot grows to $1 billion as Maryland’s $1 million ticket winner awaits claim
WBFF — A Powerball ticket sold in Lanham has made one lucky player $1 million richer following Wednesday night’s drawing.
The ticket, which matched all five white balls but missed the red Powerball, is one of three significant wins in Maryland from the Dec. 10 drawing. The other two winning tickets include a $150,000 prize in Hughesville and a $50,000 prize in Bel Air.
The $1 million ticket was purchased at the 7-Eleven located at 7730 Finns Lane in Lanham, Prince George’s County.
Meanwhile, the $150,000 ticket, which included the Power Play option, was sold at the Jameson-Harrison American Legion Post 238 in Hughesville, Charles County.
The $50,000 ticket was bought at Klein’s Shoprite on North Main Street in Bel Air, Harford County.
None of these winning tickets have been claimed yet, and the Maryland Lottery is urging winners to sign their tickets and store them safely. Prizes over $25,000 must be claimed by appointment at Lottery headquarters within 182 days of the drawing date.
The Powerball jackpot, which has not been won since Sept. 6, has now rolled over to an estimated annuity value of $1 billion, with a cash option of $461.3 million for the next drawing on Saturday night. This marks the seventh-largest jackpot since Powerball began in 1992.
