WOODLAWN, Md. — A crash on I-695 left six people dead Wednesday afternoon.

Maryland State Police say an Acura plowed through a work zone near Security Boulevard, killing several construction workers before flipping on its roof.

The driver identified as 54-year-old Lisa Adrienna Lea, of Randallstown, was taken by ambulance to Shock Trauma.

Investigators believe Lea tried switching lanes when she hit the front corner panel of a Volkswagen, causing her to lose control and enter the work zone.

The Volkswagen driver, 20-year-old Melachi Brown, of Windsor Mill, was not hurt.

Police have not released the names of the six victims.

The Baltimore County State's Attorney is reviewing the case to determine if criminal charges should be filed.

All lanes on both sides of the beltway have fully reopened after temporarily being shut down.
