CENTREVILLE, Md.- Maryland State Police in Queen Anne's County are investigating a Tuesday morning three-vehicle crash involving two State Highway Administration trucks.
The crash occurred shortly before 8 a.m. on southbound MD Route 301, south of Perlee Road. According to police, the two SHA vehicles, a 2008 yellow dump truck and a 2008 yellow flatbed "cattle truck," were in lane one spraying Round-Up on the right edge of the grassy center median. Police noted that the SHA had lane one shut down due to the road work, with an arrow board up directing traffic into lane two. Troopers said that at this time, a 2011 Ford F-150 pickup, operated by Michael Jeremy Winsor of Centreville, was traveling in lane one when it struck the rear of the flatbed SHA truck, which had a crush attenuator attached to its rear. Police said the flatbed truck subsequently struck the rear of the SHA dump truck that was spraying Round-Up.
Winsor and the driver of the SHA flatbed truck, Travis Deshawn Bailey of Centreville, were both taken to Easton Memorial Hospital for treatment of unspecified injuries.
The driver of the SHA dump truck, Gregory Lynn Thrower of Felton, Del., sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was flown by MSP helicopter to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center for non life threatening injuries.
Charges are pending against Winsor, police noted.
