Wicomico Hit and Run update

Maryland State Police have updated investigation information regarding a recent hit and run fatality on north Route 13, Salisbury. The victim was 29-year-old Colin Henny Lin, a son of the owner of The Tokyo Steak House in Salisbury and was a manager at that restaurant.  The restaurant has been temporarily closed.

UPDATE: Further investigation has revealed more evidence from the scene that links the crash to other vehicles involved. 

Investigators believe the crash occurred at approximately 4:00 a.m. Additional information gleaned through further investigation of the crash has ruled out the blue and white truck, initially listed as a vehicle of interest.

During the investigation, video surveillance of the area where the crash occurred developed additional vehicles of interest.  One vehicle was identified as a white Ford Edge.  On 8/22/2022 that vehicle was located and identified as a 2009 Ford Edge.  The vehicle has been seized and is being stored at the Maryland State Police Salisbury Barrack pending further investigation.

Another vehicle of interest has been developed as being involved in the crash after forensic analysis of vehicle debris at the scene identified the parts as belonging to a Kia Soul, believed to be a light colored Kia Soul between the model years 2016 and 2019. 

Anyone with information relevant to the investigation is urged to contact the Maryland State Police Salisbury Barrack at 410-749-3101.

 

Dear Worcester County families and community,

I want to begin by extending my sincerest thanks to you for the incredible patience, understanding, and support you have shown us as we navigated very difficult circumstances amid what felt like a never-ending crisis. As we look ahead to the 2022 - 2023 school year, I am happy that our schools will once again resemble the places of learning our students and you - our families - have longed for.

While the pandemic has ended, we have learned valuable lessons from this time. These lessons are woven through both this plan as well as established best practices for general health and safety, instruction, and technology integration.

With that in mind, I want you to know that this plan looks very different from previous years as our focus shifts to recovery of learning. Notably, you'll see the removal of our stages of learning. In Worcester, we have consistently advocated for students' safe return to the classroom early in this pandemic. We led the way in designing strategies and protocols that did just that.

Once again, we anticipate leading the way as we continue our work to close those learning gaps that either appeared or widened as a result of these tumultuous years. We look forward to your partnership in this endeavor.

Sincerely,

Louis H. Taylor

Superintendent of Schools

Automobiles sin the 1930s usually did not come equipped with heaters as standard equipment. That's probably why the young lady in the photo is attempting to drive with that huge coat with a fur collar. There was even a term for such attire; the carcoat. You can look it up! Every stylish young lady of that era wanted a carcoat. I can remember in about 1958 when my aunt Ruth boasted about getting a new carcoat at Penny's at Clarke Avenue and Market Street.

tk for PPE says: Remember the cash carrier set up at the Pocomoke Penny's? The sales clerk put your payment in the carrier and up it went to the balcony via a pully type mechanism where a cashier made change and sent it back down with receipt to your sales person on the main floor.

I sure do! I remember when my father took me in to get my first pair of real work shoes. Bobby Judd was the salesman and Dad asked if the shoes were $10. Bobby replied they were....$10 for each shoe. That was considered really expensive back then.

tk for PPE says: Bobby was in my sister's PHS graduating class. Bobby's sister, Peggy, was in my class.
