LUSBY  ----  A serious wreck on Rt. 4 at Rousby Hall Road left police scrambling to find two people who fled from a Mercedes with Virginia tags KBX 2963.   More as this story develops....why would these two persons have ran into nearby woods with a Maryland State Police helicopter hot on their trail?  Open alcohol containers were found inside the Mercedes.
Calvert Sheriff Mike Evans told ST. MARYS TODAY that his officers believe that the reason for the men fleeing could be centered around drugs and this aspect is under investigation.  "We have one of the suspects at the hospital now being treated for his injuries from the wreck, which are not believed to be life-threatening," said Sheriff Evans.  "The people in the other vehicle which was hit by the Mercedes were not seriously injured. We have quite a few witnesses."
Sheriff Evans said that the two men being sought were described as black males.

Calvert Sheriff's officers reported later that on January 21 at 3:51 in the afternoon, a silver 2002 Mercedes heading northbound on Md. Rt. 4 in Lusby failed to stop at a red light at Rousby Hall Road, striking a green 2004 Toyota Tundra which then struck a traffic utility pole.  The Mercedes then came to a stop and the driver and 2 passengers fled on foot running towards the Lusby Commons shopping center. Members of the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office made contact with one of the subjects, identified as Gabriel L. Holloway, 40 of Sunderland, in the shopping center.  At the time, Holloway told police he had not been driving the vehicle and did not know the name of the person who was.  Holloway was transported to Calvert Memorial Hospital for treatment of injuries sustained in the crash.  He was released from the hospital shortly after treatment.  The 2 passengers were not located.  The owner of the Mercedes phoned police later that day and advised that she had just received a call from Holloway telling her he had been involved in a motor vehicle crash with her car.  The owner stated that Holloway did not have permission to use her vehicle.

The two occupants of the Toyota Tundra, Gregory Johnson, 37 and Christopher Johnson, 14, both of Lusby, were taken to St. Mary’s Hospital for treatment of injuries sustained in the crash.  Charges are pending against Holloway for unauthorized use of a motor vehicle and hindering the accident investigation.
