The video captured from a nearby convenience store showed the Lamborghini collide directly into the store’s fence and the driver, was allegedly identified by witnesses as Gervonta Davis.

Following the collision, witness accounts and video gathered during the investigation also revealed that a black Camaro arrived at the scene of crash, and people began transferring items from the Lamborghini to the Camaro.

Allegedly, Davis and the unidentified woman passenger were seen on camera leaving from the scene in the Camaro.

Four occupants of the Toyota Solara were injured as a result of the collision and were transported to University of Maryland Shock Trauma.
