Hinson swerved and lost control of his Crown Victoria, police said, then traveled sideways on Baltimore Annapolis Boulevard, crossed over both lanes of traffic and hit a parked Ford Ranger  parked on the shoulder. The Crown Victoria kept going across the grass of a home in the 7800 block of Baltimore Annapolis Boulevard, hitting a fence and a Chevrolet 2500 pickup truck that was parked in the driveway before it stopped, police said.

Hinson was taken to the Maryland Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore with serious but non-life threatening injuries after the crash in Glen Burnie.
