Timonium-Hunt Valley Light Rail closed 3 weeks

-

The northernmo­st section of the Baltimore Light Rail will close for nearly three weeks, between the Timonium Fairground­s and Hunt Valley stops, beginning today. Service will be suspended until Oct. 4 at the Hunt Valley, Pepper Road, McCormick Road, Gilroy Road and Warren Road stops, according to the Maryland Transit Administra­tion. The MTA is adding extra buses to the Local Link 93 route, which already runs between the affected stations, including some that will have express service, stopping at each closed station except Gilroy Road. Passengers there may catch the bus at Gilroy and Clubhouse roads, the MTA said. Beaver Dam and Gilroy roads will be closed for about a week for the repairs, weather permitting, and Beaver Dam and Warren roads will be closed on weekends for three consecutiv­e weekends. Both the express buses and the Local Link 93 will use York and Cockeysvil­le roads as a detour. A woman is accused of running over and killing a shopliftin­g accomplice while fleeing a Walmart. Elkton Police Capt. Joseph Zurolo said 35-yearold Keneesha Cunningham, 38-year-old Chermaine Tee Mayo and 26-year-old Donisha Jaquil Harris pushed a cart with nearly $1,200 in clothing, food and household goods out of a Maryland Walmart early Saturday. Zurolo says the Delaware women ignored a guard who asked for a receipt. Cunningham sat on the car trunk to shield the license plate. Cunningham fell and was pinned underneath as Mayo attempted to drive off. Zurolo says Mayo kept trying to drive, but with the car stuck, she and Harris fled on foot. They were arrested nearby. Cunningham was pronounced dead at the scene. Police found open alcohol in the car.
