Sketchy details. Just in. We’re hearing that Baltimore Sun’s managing editor for business news, Tim Wheatley, was killed in a car accident in the northern Baltimore County town of Hereford this morning. His 9-year-old daughter was with him in the vehicle. We’re told that she has survived and was taken to the Johns Hopkins Childrens Center. Baltimore County Police spokesman Bill Toohey tells DCRTV that the accident occurred at 8:54 AM. Wheatley, who was a resident of Monkton, was turning onto southbound York Road when his vehicle was hit by a UPS truck. He was pronounced dead on the scene. His daughter was taken to Sinai Hospital and then on to JHCC. The UPS truck driver was not seriously injured, police say. The police investigation continues. Before joining the Sun’s business coverage earlier this year, Wheatley had been a managing editor for the Sun’s sports section. More soon…..

Police are still investigating who is at fault in the crash. There is a red light present at the intersection and investigators are reviewing records to see who had the green light at the time of the crash.
Wheatley’s daughter was first taken to Sinai hospital before being transferred to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center. She is a student at Sparks Elementary School.
Baltimore Sun
Staff members at The Sun were informed of Wheatley’s death by J. Montgomery Cook, the paper’s editor, in a hastily convened meeting in the newsroom. Later, he released a statement that described Wheatley as “a terrific journalist and an accomplished editor” as well as a “wonderful colleague.”
