The department announced Ward's death late Saturday, April 20.
While police did not provide further details, Maryland State Police said Ward, 36, of Rosedale, rear-ended a Ford tow truck on the inner loop of I-695 around 4:30 p.m. just before the Jones Falls Expressway. He had been operating a 2024 GMC Savana, and was pronounced dead at the scene.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
“This is a terrible loss for Officer Ward’s family, his team members and the Baltimore Police Department on the whole,” said Police Commissioner Richard Worley. “My heart goes out to his loved ones. The Department extends its support and sympathies to them at this time.”
Funeral arrangements will be released at a later date.
