Pedestrian dies, 5 people injured after crash partially collapses Baltimore building; police say they were trying to stop car

BALTIMORE — Two cars, one of which police were attempting to stop, collided and struck an East Baltimore building Wednesday night, killing a pedestrian, injuring five people and causing the structure to partially collapse, according to Baltimore Police.

Baltimore Deputy Commissioner Richard Worley said the crash happened at about 8:54 p.m., after police attempted to stop one of the vehicles, which he said was stolen, on the East North Avenue corridor.

When police tried to stop the vehicle, it accelerated and crashed into another vehicle, and then a building on the southeast corner of North Wolfe Street and East North Avenue. Both vehicles were occupied, and the building appeared to be vacant.
