BROOKLANDVILLE, MD. (THECOUNT) — Nadia Dominique Morgan, from Jamaica, has been identified as the award-winning Johns Hopkins rheumatologist killed in a hit-and-run crash involving three vehicles in Maryland.
Morgan, 35, died late Saturday night. Police said Sunday that 31-year-old Jason William Hines has been charged in connection with the fatal hit-and-run.
According to the release, Morgan was driving south through an intersection on a green light when a car heading east struck her, forcing it into a third vehicle.
