Trivia

History section states that Pikesville is the only contemporary place in the United States with that name. Although not contemporary and appearing in a work of fiction, Narrator Huck Finn in The Adventures of Huckeberry Finn recounts early in Ch. XXXI that Jim and he hid the raft in a safe place near a "shabby village named Pikesville." BubbleDine (talk) 20:48, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Trivia section states: One of the September 11 terrorists was pulled over for speeding on I-695 in Pikesville shortly before the attacks. Does anyone have a source for that? I thought that one of the Washington D.C. snipers was pulled over in Pikesville, but this is the first I've heard of 9/11 terrorists being pulled over. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Aishel (talk • contribs) 14:32, 10 May 2007 (UTC).[reply]

This CNN article [1] which is specifically about the traffic stop says he was stopped on I-95 near the Delaware state line, in Cecil County. The article also says "PIKESVILLE" in the byline, but that is the location of the Maryland State Police headquarters [2], which is probably the source of confusion. The announcement about releasing the video probably happened at state police headquarters. Another source, is a court document presented at the Moussaoui trial [3] (document B) which says Jarrah received the citation in the Perryville area in Cecil County. So, I would have to say for sure that Cecil County is where he was stopped. --Aude (talk) 03:27, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds pretty conclusive to me. Thanks for checking it out! DMacks (talk) 03:41, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
