Maryland State Police seeking to identify suspect in fatal 2022 hit-and-run crash in Harford County

ABERDEEN, MD—Maryland State Police are asking for the public’s assistance in identifying the suspect wanted in connection with a fatal pedestrian crash in which one person died and two others were injured last November in Harford County.

At just before 2:15 a.m. on November 24, 2022, troopers from the Maryland State Police JFK Memorial Highway Barrack responded to southbound I-95 south of Route 22 in Aberdeen for a report of a hit-and-run crash involving pedestrians.

According to investigators, three pedestrians were on the shoulder of the road putting gasoline into a vehicle, when what investigators now believe was a white 2016 Audi A5 with tinted windows, for unknown reasons, veered onto the shoulder and struck the pedestrians. One victim, identified as Guiermo Che, 19, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was pronounced dead at the scene. Two other victims were transported by ambulance to an area hospital for treatment of their injuries.

A gray SUV, believed to possibly be a Mazda CX5, has been identified as a vehicle of interest. The gray SUV was seen at about 4 a.m. on November 24, 2022 in the parking lot of the clubhouse of the Greenway Farms development, located at 1659 Rankokus Drive in Havre De Grace. The SUV was seen again in the parking lot at just after 4 a.m. on the same day. Both times the SUV was seen outside the clubhouse, it was stopped next to the 2016 Audi A5 identified as the suspect vehicle. The 2016 Audi A5 has been seized by the Maryland State Police.

Authorities are investigating the case. Anyone with additional information, including the identification of the gray SUV, and its driver at the time it was in the parking lot of the clubhouse near the Audi A5, is asked to call the JFK Memorial Highway Barrack at 410-537-1150.
