Shortly before 8:30 a.m. on April 11, troopers were called to a stretch of the highway near St. Mary's Road in Pylesville, where there was a reported multi-vehicle crash.

According to the preliminary investigation, a 2014 Chevy Equinox, for unknown reasons, crossed over from the southbound lane into the northbound lane of traffic and crashed head-on into Toyota Tacoma.

Both the driver of the Chevy, a 36-year-old man and Toyota driven by a 43-year-old man involved in the crash were pronounced dead at the scene by first responders in Harford County.

Their identities are being withheld pending notification of their families.

While state police investigated the crash, Route 165 was temporarily closed in both directions for approximately five hours before reopening.
