Maryland State Police are investigating after two people were killed during a crash in Harford County on Thursday evening.
Shortly after 6:00PM, troopers were dispatched to a traffic crash reported on northbound I-95 in Abingdon.
At the scene troopers found two vehicles were involved.
The first victim killed in this crash has been identified as Dennis English, Jr., 45, from Baltimore. He was the operator and sole occupant of a 2013 GMC Terrain SUV involved in the crash.
The second victim was identified as John Mastropietro, 64, of Ocean Port, New Jersey. He was the driver of a Subaru Forester SUV.
Emergency medical service personnel transported him to the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore where he was pronounced dead.
Mastropietro was traveling with two other passengers in the vehicle, both of whom were injured.
The injured victims are identified as Denise Berlin, 60, and Jade Mastropietro, 26, both of Ocean Port, New Jersey.
They were transported from the scene to the Shock Trauma for medical treatment.
Witnesses say the GMC SUV driven by Dennis English was traveling at a high rate of speed when it lost control, crossed over two lanes and overturned across the guardrail.
The preliminary investigation indicates the Subaru Forester was being driven northbound on I-95 in lane 2 when it was struck head on by the GMC when it became airborne and overturned into the northbound lanes of I-95.
The cause and contributing factors in this crash remain under investigation.
All possible causes are being considered including excessive speed and possible impairment, police say.
