newsBot · Jan 2, 2021

On January 1, 2021, at approximately 9:46 p.m. deputies from the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office responded to the 18800 block of Point Lookout Road in the area of Marshfields Lane, in Park Hall, for the reported single vehicle collision. Deputies arrived on scene and located a vehicle off the roadway with the operator trapped in the vehicle and unconscious. The operator, later identified to be Kevin Darnell Dyson, age 53 of Park Hall, was extracted from the vehicle and pronounced deceased on scene. Members from the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Office Collision Reconstruction Unit responded to the scene and continued the investigation.

Preliminary investigation determined a 2002 Chevrolet Impala operated by Dyson, was travelling northbound on Point Lookout Road when the vehicle left the roadway and struck a guardrail. At this time speed, alcohol, and weather conditions appear to be contributing factors in the collision.
