The Metropolitan Police Department’s (MPD) Major Crash Investigations Unit is investigating a traffic fatality that killed a teen on Oct. 26, on the 1300 block of Bryant Street, NE.

According to MPD documents, a teenage girl was driving a Honda Pilot at a high rate of speed and failed to navigate the traffic circle at Brentwood Road and Bryant Street, NE. The vehicle struck a utility pole turning the vehicle onto its roof, and then struck another vehicle before coming to a stop.

A Toyota Camry, also being operated at a high rate of speed, failed to navigate the same traffic circle. The operator lost control and collided with the retaining wall at the same location. Three occupants of the Camry exited the vehicle and two of the suspects fled the scene. A 15-year-old juvenile female who was a passenger in the Camry, remained on the scene and was arrested for unauthorized use of a vehicle.

The operator of the Honda Pilot, 16-year-old Kendra Outlaw, died at the scene.

The Pilot was carjacked on Oct. 26 on the 3700 block of Southern Avenue, SE, and the Camry was carjacked on Oct. 25 in Prince George’s County, MD.

MPD is requesting anyone who has knowledge of the incident to call them.
