The preliminary investigation found a Honda CR-V was traveling southbound on MD-152 and tried to make a left turn onto Pleasantville Rd. and that’s when an electric dirt bike traveling northbound on MD-152 hit the Honda on the passenger side, officials said.
Maryland State Police Aviation Command flew the teen, who attended Fallston High School, to a local trauma center where he was pronounced dead.
The Maryland State Police Crash Team is leading the investigation.
Once completed, the investigation will be presented to the Office of the State’s Attorney in Harford County to determine if charges will be filed.
SHA’s review should be done in the next 90 days, Councilmember Imhoff said.
