Serious Accident On Central Ave.

 DAVIDSONVILLE, Md. — An unidentified male was killed and two others critically injured - including a 15-year-old boy - after the pickup truck they were in crashed and caught fire Tuesday afternoon in Anne Arundel County.

It happened at about 1:30 p.m. Nov. 8 on Central Avenue near Queen Anne Bridge Road in Davidsonville, said Anne Arundel County police in a press release today.

Christopher Timberlake, 38, of Charlottesville, Va., was driving a 2012 Ford F250 Super Duty pickup truck when the truck went off the road for unknown reasons, and hit a tree.

The truck caught fire and became fully engulfed in flames after crashing into the tree, said police.

A front-seat passenger - identified so far only as a male - was trapped in the truck and was pronounced dead at the scene.

A 15-year-old boy in the backseat was taken to UMD Capital Region Medical Center with life-threatening injuries. The driver was flown to Shock Trauma, also with life-threatening injuries.

Cam Spencer Has Big Debut

PISCATAWAY – It took all of one game in a Rutgers basketball uniform for Cam Spencer to blow the lid off Jersey Mike’s Arena.

The transfer guard from Loyola-Maryland electrified the crowd of 7,000 in Monday’s season opener, tallying 17 points, six steals and five assists in a 75-35 romp of Columbia.

“Cam prepares; he’s a worker," Rutgers coach Steve Pikiell said. "He’s a huge addition. Really thankful all these guys stayed, but really thankful we added Cam. He brings a whole other dimension to our team.”

Spencer, who is a senior with two years of eligibility left, came in with a sharpshooter's reputation. But he excelled in all phases in this one, getting in the passing lanes, coming up with loose balls, making the extra pass. He came out of halftime white hot, scoring eight points in 63 seconds – notching a 3-pointer, a turnaround jumper and a driving layup.

The crowd went bonkers, feeding off both his shooting and the passion he exudes on the court.
