Frederick, let's settle a common crosswalk question.

You've probably seen it.... a pedestrian is waiting at a crosswalk.

One driver stops while another keeps going. Someone throws their hands up wondering who's wrong.

Here's the part many people don't know:

Maryland law requires drivers to stop for pedestrians who are within the crosswalk. A person waiting on the sidewalk does not automatically have the right-of-way.

No matter which side of the crosswalk you're on, a little patience and awareness go a long way. Summer is here. More people are walking, kids are outside.

Let's look out for each other.

UPDATE: Jared has been located. Thank you for all the shares and assistance.

FPD is seeking the public's assistance in locating a missing person. Jared Anthony Cline (DOB: 5/17/1996) was last heard from by family members in early April.

If you have seen Jared or have any information about his whereabouts, please contact the Frederick Police Department at 301-600-2102.
