ANNAPOLIS, Md. – Maryland State Police are investigating a fatal crash that occurred early Wednesday morning in Anne Arundel County.
The deceased is identified as Andrew David Frye, 34, of Crownsville, Maryland. He was pronounced deceased at the scene by emergency medical services personnel. Frye was the operator of a 2000 Yamaha motorcycle involved in the crash.
