Christopher Sosa, 17, of Accokeek, Md., crashed early Wednesday morning and died later at a hospital, police said.

Sosa was transported to a hospital, where he died Wednesday evening. The teen’s passenger, who police did not identify, was injured.

During their investigation of the crash, Prince George’s County police said they determined that Sosa had crossed the double yellow line on Accokeek Road to pass several slower-moving vehicles. A deputy with the county sheriff’s office saw Sosa and “briefly activated the emergency equipment on his unmarked cruiser,” investigators said.A sheriff’s office spokesperson said the deputy turned his lights off soon after because the teen’s car had sped too far ahead of him.

The Independent Investigations Division of the Maryland Attorney General’s Office, which investigates alleged or potential police-involved deaths of civilians, was notified of the incident but declined to investigate, officials said. The deputy’s actions are being investigated separately by the sheriff’s office, the spokesperson said.

Prosecutors cut deal with teen accused of shooting nine people at Ladd-Peebles StadiumA teenager accused of shooting nine people at a 2019 high school football game accepted a plea bargain with prosecutors on Thursday that will allow him to leave prison in less than two years. I'm disturbed by what I heard Ashley Rich say about the witnesses. If there was no evidence or witnesses against the guy, he shouldn't have been in jail for the last 3 years. Did the grand jury indict him? Does Rich know what 12 jurors would have thought about the evidence?
