A Grandmother founded group cites improper maintenance as a major issue while a state senator calls for stronger annual inspections. The Friday crash killed Jeffrey James Baldwin, and Saturday Kimberly Ann Schroeder died after a dump truck with failed brakes ran them over.

Maryland expects strong Chesapeake crabbing season
Kent Island AP report notes early signs point to a successful crab season with abundant harvests. Maryland officials and dealers cite warm water, rising bay temps near 55 degrees, and a potential yearly haul around 48.1 million pounds last year as the benchmark. Some watermen report one to three bushels daily amid cooler, rainy weather and low current prices.
