Baltimore County man arrested for going to crash survivor’s home, making threats while armed

A Baltimore County man is behind bars and facing assault and weapons charges after police said he went to the neighborhood of a 16-year-old recovering from a serious car crash and threatened that teen’s mother and others in the community.

Police found more than a dozen weapons inside the suspect’s home, a short distance away.

Baltimore County Police Chief Robert McCullough spoke to WJZ about the incident that happened Sunday evening.

Chief McCullough said an armed suspect, 39-year-old Imtiaz Sami, confronted people in the Lutherville-Timonium neighborhood of Liam O’Donoghue.

O’Donoghue,16, had just returned home on Friday after undergoing multiple surgeries and losing his arm following a car crash that claimed the lives of two of his friends.

“It is our belief that he was specifically looking for that family. He was expressing his outrage to the neighbors about this young man and specifically that car crash and his feelings about that,” McCullough told WJZ Investigator Mike Hellgren.
