Derrick Lawson, a 33-year-old Black man from Baltimore, Maryland, was killed in a traffic collision on June 9, 2014, at the intersection of Hollins Ferry Road and Hammonds Ferry Road on the edge of the city in the Lansdowne area of Baltimore County. The crash happened in the middle of the afternoon; police and fire crews were dispatched at about 2:46 p.m. and found the scooter operator badly hurt. Lawson was taken to St. Agnes Hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.

Investigators reported the Honda CR-V was traveling eastbound on Hollins Ferry Road while the motor scooter was headed northbound on Hammonds Ferry Road when the two vehicles collided. Authorities described the scene investigation as ongoing, with measurements and vehicle movements being reconstructed to determine how the collision unfolded. No arrests had been publicly announced when the incident was reported, and the completed investigation was to be presented to the Baltimore County State’s Attorney’s Office for review of potential charges.
