12/1/2021: On Tuesday, November 30, 2021, at approximately 5:40 p.m., police conducted a traffic stop in the area of Rt. 260 and Limerick Lane in Owings.

As a Deputy was parked in his marked agency issued patrol vehicle in the area of Rt.260 and Wesley Stinnett Blvd., he observed a black Dodge Stratus bearing Maryland registration on the front, but no registration plates on the rear of the vehicle.

The deputy activated his emergency lights and sirens to initiate  a traffic stop in the area of Rt.260 and Saint Andrews Drive when the vehicle began pulling over to the right shoulder, but took an unusual amount of time to come to a complete stop.

When the suspect vehicle came to a complete stop, the deputy shined his spot light towards the vehicle and observed the right front passenger look over his left shoulder towards the deputy.

The deputy exited his patrol car and made contact with the occupants. The operator was identified as Nicholas Robert Jordan, 27, of Glen Burnie, and the passenger, John Garrett Stone III, 27, of Arnold.


When asked if anything illegal was in the vehicle, Stone handed the deputy a rolled marijuana joint and then returned to his agency issued vehicle to provided the Calvert County Dispatch Center the names of both subjects, and waited for an additional officer arrived on the scene.

Stone came back as being wanted for for failing to appear in court for driving on a suspended license. A short time after the Calvert 911 Dispatch Center confirmed the warrant was active

As the deputy waited in his vehicle for the additional units to arrive, he observed Stone continuing to move around the vehicle in the area of the passenger seat and look back at the deputy.

As additional units arrive, deputies asked both subjects to exit the vehicle, and when Stone was told he was being placed under arrest and to place his hands behind his back, Stone had his right index finger gripped by his left hand, he then pulled away from the deputy and ran across the Westbound lanes of Rt.260 before he tripped and fell in the median, Stone got up and then continued to run towards the Eastbound lanes of Rt.260.

As Stone left the median and entered the Eastbound lane #1, Stone tripped on the edge of the pavement and fell into lane #1 into the path of a Ford Focus where he was struck by the vehicle.

Stone then got up and fled on foot again before being taken into custody as the deputy pointed his agency issued taser at him.

Fire and rescue personnel responded to the scene to evaluate the suspect for injuries. The operator of the striking vehicle denied any injuries and Stone stated he was “fine”.

Prior to the departure of EMS, a search of Stone was conducted which yielded a Ziploc bag of marijuana he retrieved from his under wear.

Stone was transported to an area hospital for further medical evaluation and treatment.
