Motorcyclist Killed in Easton Crash

08/30/2006 3:42 PM
EASTON- A 44-year-old man is dead after his motorcycle collided with a
Jeep in Easton on Wednesday.
Maryland State Police say that at a little after 10 a.m., troopers
responded to MD Route 309 at Black Dog Alley in Easton for a motor
vehicle collision involving a motorcycle.
An investigation determined that a Jeep Liberty approached the
intersection of Black Dog Alley and Route 309. Police say that the Jeep
stopped at the stop sign and then continued through the intersection.
Meantime, the Harley Davidson was traveling northbound on MD Route 309
approaching the intersection of Black Dog Alley. Police say the Jeep
continued through the intersection, traveling towards the intersection
of westbound U.S. Route 50. According to police, the Harley attempted
to avoid striking the Jeep ,but the right front passenger side of the
Jeep struck the right side of the Harley. The Harley left the roadway
(MD Route 309), striking a Verizon telephone pole.
The driver of the Harley, Martin Leo Schultz, of Newcomb, Md., was
pronounced dead at the scene of the collision by Talbot County EMS.
The driver of the Jeep, Latasha Rashawn Neal, 25, of Hurlock, was
transported to Easton Memorial Hospital for minor injuries.
Police say charges are pending.


We just lost our STATE director from what appears to be a failure of
right of way. Something we fought to get passed last year.


Funny. The story is slightly slanted against the motorcyclist, but police
say charges are pending. Hmmm... its rare that they waste their time
bringing charges against a corpse.

I hate incomplete reporting.
