Seriously Injured Man Hospitalized After Crash

A 56-year old man was taken to the hospital with serious injuries after an accident involving a pickup truck and car on Veterans Highway and Benfield Boulevard Tuesday afternoon, according to an Anne Arundel County Fire spokesman.

Battalion Chief Steve Thompson said a pickup truck ran into the back of a car around 12:45 p.m. When fire officials arrived, the 56-year old driver of the truck was in “full trauma”, according to Thompson.

“Full trauma means the person is unconscious and not breathing,” Thompson said.

Fire officials transported the man to the Baltimore Washington Medical Center. Thompson was unsure of the man’s condition after he arrived at the hospital.

The driver of the car involved in the accident sustained minor injuries, according to Thompson.
