From State's Attorney Worcester County:

On February 25, 2025, Tyler Mailloux, age 24 of Berlin, Maryland pleaded guilty to one felony count of failing to immediately stop his vehicle at the scene of an accident where he knew or should have known that the accident resulted in the death of another and a death actually occurred. The hit-and-run collision occurred on the night of July 11, 2022 on Gray's Corner Road in Berlin, and took the life of 14 year old Gavin Knupp.
