A man wanted for an Annapolis stabbing is now dead after he was hit by a tractor-trailer in Prince George’s County, Maryland, Monday afternoon.

Maurice Logan Mitchell, 42, of Annapolis, died after walking on the highway where he was hit around 4:15 p.m., Maryland State Police said in a statement.

State troopers said Mitchell walked into traffic on the John Hanson Highway near Enterprise Road. He was taken to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Just two hours before this deadly collision, the victim allegedly stabbed a woman during a domestic dispute in Annapolis.

Authorities confirmed to WTOP that the stabbing suspect and the crash victim are the same person.

Annapolis police said the woman is in stable condition.
