GLEN BURNIE, Md. — A 54-year-old Glen Burnie man was killed in a hit and run crash early Wednesday morning.

Maryland State Troopers were called just before 2am to southbound I-97 at Route 648 for reports of a pedestrian being struck.

On scene they discovered Delroy Roderick Ben who appeared to have been run over by a car. He died on scene.

Initially detectives thought Ben was hit by one car, either a black Audi A8 or S8 made between the years of 2010 and 2018.

After further investigation it was determined a second car also struck Ben, a silver Nissan Altima or Maxima made between the years of 2007 and 2013.

Both vehicles allegedly left the scene. The Audi could have a missing passenger side mirror and damage to the right front corner.

Police still have not said why Ben was in the road.

Anyone with information on the crash is asked to contact the Maryland State Police Glen Burnie Barrack at 410-761-5130.
