Wanted Suspect Dead And Another Injured In Crash After Fleeing Attempted Traffic Stop In So. MD

(LEONARDTOWN, MD) — One wanted individual has died and another was injured following a crash that occurred in St. Mary’s County early this morning after they refused to stop for a trooper.

The deceased is identified as Tabais L. Robinson, 24, and the injured man is Andre T. Gross, 23, both of whom are from Calvert County. Robinson was wanted on a parole retake warrant and on a warrant for violation of probation. Gross is wanted on five warrants from the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office involving theft, failure to appear and child support. He has been charged today by troopers with possession of cocaine after suspected cocaine and synthetic marijuana were found in the car in which he was a passenger. He is currently being held at the St. Mary’s County Detention Center.

Shortly after 12:30 a.m. today, a Maryland state trooper from the Prince Frederick Barrack was working speed enforcement on Rt. 4 in Solomons, Md., prior to the Thomas Johnson Bridge. He observed a southbound BMW following another car and failing to dim its headlights. As the car passed he also saw the vehicle had no working tag light.

The trooper followed the BMW across the bridge and then activated his emergency equipment in an attempt to make a traffic stop. The driver, later identified as Robinson, failed to stop and accelerated away. The trooper notified the Leonardtown Barrack the suspect was traveling between 80-90 mph on Rt. 4.

The trooper saw the vehicle’s headlights go off as the car turned onto Fairgrounds Road. Robinson drove down Fairgrounds Road with no lights on. Just prior to Rt. 5, Robinson lost control of the car, before striking a street sign, a ditch and overturning several times. Robinson was ejected from the car.

Emergency medical personnel were summoned immediately. Robinson was transported to Medstar St. Mary’s Hospital, before being transferred to Medstar Washington Hospital Center, where he was pronounced dead later this morning. Gross was transported to Medstar St. Mary’s Hospital, where he was treated for injuries. He was arrested by troopers following his release.

The investigation by the Maryland State Police Crash Team is continuing.

Possibly a happy ending here. We'll see. The second turd, the one that survived, is nothing but a drain on society that will never take care of his kids. With that in mind, I can hope that he seizes being a drain by an act of one of his upcoming cellmates. I know that I'm awful but I'm just in that kind of mood today. F'ing bastards who don't take care of their kids need to be strung up.

In life we make choices. He made a bad choice and suffered the consequences. Though it was bad for him I have to believe society is better off with him.

You live in a Country where driving is a privilege, not a right. Equipment must be maintained. The issue is that you idiots posting about being pulled over for a tag light, if you're on a Maryland Government owned and maintained road, obey the laws and keep your car in working order. If you don't want to maintain your car, keep it in your lawn but stay off the Government roads. Learn the laws

Just cannot obey the law no matter what. Anything not to do as an officer tells you. Well one of you low life's died as a consequence of YOUR actions. What will it take to get through your thick skulls?
