Serious Injury Crash Pasadena
 
On December 18, 2018 at approximately 10:57 a.m., officers responded to a crash involving a pedestrian in the 800 block of Pasadena Road near Baltimore Annapolis Boulevard in Pasadena.
 
The Chevrolet was eastbound on Pasadena Road. Traffic was reduced to one lane due to construction on Pasadena Road. A construction worker was controlling traffic using a rotating stop/slow sign. The driver did not see the construction worker and struck her near the right edge of the roadway. The driver remained at the scene. The worker was transported to an area trauma center with life threatening injuries.
 
The preliminary cause of the crash appears to be the driver’s failure to observe the construction worker. There is no indication of excessive speed or alcohol use by the driver. The Traffic Safety Section is handing the investigation and the case will be reviewed by the States Attorney.
