Missing Maryland woman found dead
White’s death comes shortly after a similar situation played out in Prince George’s County.
In that case, 19-year-old Dacara Thompson, who had been reported missing, was found dead along a highway in Anne Arundel County.
Hugo Hernandez-Mendez, 35, was charged with her death and is being held on no bail. Court documents show that he was living in the U.S. unlawfully.
Thompson was reported missing on August 23. Her family said she left home that night, telling her dad she was going to get gas, and never returned. Her body was found nearly a week later, on August 31.
An investigation revealed that Thompson got into Hernandez-Mendez’s car in Hyattsville and went to his home in Bowie, where she was allegedly killed.
According to charging documents, Hernandez-Mendez dropped Thompson’s body off the U.S. 50 bridge.
The investigation also revealed that Hernandez-Mendez had been arrested by U.S. Park Police for a DUI charge nearly five months before Thompson’s alleged murder. He was released from custody.
CHESTER, MD. (WBFF) — Maryland State Police have charged a Queen Anne’s County man with attempted murder in connection with a trooper-involved shooting in Chester last week.
Police said Preston Scott Carter, 21, of Chester was arrested and, after consultation with the Office of the State’s Attorney in Queen Anne’s County, charged with attempted first- and second-degree murder, reckless endangerment and related assault charges. After being treated at a local hospital, Carter was transported to the Queen Anne’s County Detention Center, where he is being held without bond, police said.
The shooting happened at about 3:40 p.m. on April 16, when troopers from the Centreville Barrack responded to the unit block of Sherman Way in Chester for a reported disturbance. A 9-1-1 caller told police a man with a knife was making threats, according to Maryland State Police.

Troopers met with the complainant when they arrived. While a trooper was making contact with the complainant, police said a man later identified as Carter advanced toward the trooper while wielding a knife. The trooper then fired her agency-issued firearm, striking him.
Police said medical treatment was immediately administered at the scene and Carter was flown by Maryland State Police Aviation Command to a local trauma center. No other injuries were reported.
The trooper involved has been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of the investigation, in line with department policy and standard procedures.

ELLICOTT CITY, Md. — A t-bone crash involving a motorcycle left a 24-year-old Hampstead man dead on Saturday evening.
It happened around 6:30pm, along Marriottsville Road in Howard County.
That’s where a Yamaha FZ09 was heading northbound when it collided with an oncoming Nissan Rogue that was trying to make a left turn onto Warwick Way.
“Preliminary investigation suggests the motorcycle was traveling at a high rate of speed,” Howard County Police said in a press release.
The motorcycle rider later died at University of Maryland Shock Trauma.
Police say the Nissan driver, who was not hurt, remained on scene and cooperated with investigators.
Marriottsville Road was reopened after being closed for about three-hours.
