Cambridge Police Serve Summons Following Sidewalk Collision

Dorchester County, MD - Cambridge Police Department officers served a criminal summons to Lynell Kane on January 13, 2026. The 59-year-old Cambridge resident faces multiple charges following an investigation into a traffic incident that occurred in late December 2025.

The investigation began on December 28, 2025, when officers responded to a report of an alleged assault near Pine Street and Washington Street. Police interviewed a victim who stated he was standing on the sidewalk in the 700 block of Pine Street.
