VEHICLE PURSUIT RESULTS IN 1ST DEGREE ASSAULT CHARGES ON CAMBRIDGE MAN
Cambridge, MD-An intense vehicle pursuit took place on July 1st, providing a dramatic start to the month for the Cambridge Police Department (CPD).
Keizye Daijuon Collins, a 27-year-old resident of Cambridge, Maryland, initiated a dangerous chase after being stopped for a stop sign violation at the intersection of Fairmount Ave and High St.
The suspect initially stopped his vehicle when instructed by the Cambridge Police Department officer. He initially got out of his vehicle and was immediately instructed to return to it for everyone's safety. However, the situation escalated quickly. Collins sped away from the scene, triggering an intense pursuit throughout the city streets of Cambridge.
The suspect's blatant disregard for safety was evident in a high-speed chase. He swerved towards a Cambridge Police Department patrol vehicle, forcing the officer to dodge to avoid a collision. The reckless pursuit ended when Collins lost control of his vehicle and crashed into a house on Charles Street and Skinners Court. At that point, the suspect abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot.
Subsequent investigation revealed that Cambridge Police Department officers were able to confirm the suspect's identity as Keizye Daijuon Collins. Collins attempted to mislead the investigation by falsely reporting that his vehicle had been stolen. It was also found that his license had already been suspended and revoked.
Despite the Cambridge Police Department's request for a voluntary appearance, Collins refused to cooperate, resulting in an arrest warrant.
On July 8th, Collins was eventually arrested and transported for processing. He was later handed over to the Dorchester County Department of Corrections on no bail terms.
Collins now faces a plethora of charges, including Assault 1st Degree, Assault 2nd Degree, False Statement to Officer, and various traffic violations such as reckless driving, negligent driving, and aggressive driving, among others.
All individuals listed in this article are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
