Maryland man sentenced to five years in traffic incident – Shore Daily News
By Linda Cicoira
A 22-year-old Maryland man was sentenced to five years in prison Thursday in Accomack Circuit Court for a high speed chase that ended in a crash in northern Accomack County.
Malachi Tull, of Camden Court in Salisbury, was convicted of wearing a mask to conceal his identity. He was initially indicted on counts of eluding police by going 20 mph above the speed limit and stealing a vehicle on Feb. 12. Tull was acquitted of eluding. The theft charge was not prosecuted.
All but the time the defendant served was suspended.
In a press release, Sheriff Todd Wessells said a deputy attempted to make a traffic stop at about 1 a.m. when a vehicle failed to stay in the correct lane on Lankford Highway in the Tasley area. The vehicle didn’t stop and went through Accomac going more than 75 mph. It then went back to the highway and headed north at speeds of more than 100 mph, eventually crashing near Bloxom.
Wessells said two occupants got out and attempted to flee the scene. Tull was apprehended. The other suspect was not found.
