COLLEGE PARK, MD — A 46-year-old La Plata man was killed early Friday in a single-vehicle crash on an Interstate 95 ramp in Prince George’s County, Maryland State Police said.

The crash happened shortly after 3:20 a.m. on the ramp from southbound I-95 to southbound I-495. Investigators say Bowie’s Lincoln MKZ left the roadway, struck a guardrail and an abutment, then crashed into a ravine before catching fire.

The Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration assisted with road closures as the investigation continued.
