The tragic event that has unfolded in front of us today has left us truly heartbroken. Today’s event is something very difficult to put into words, as no words can describe the loss of a public servant. No words can describe the act of selflessness our police officers show on a daily basis. They have all stood up, raised their right hands under oath, and promised to protect their community, us.
We, the Kingsville Volunteer Fire Company, send our deepest condolences to the family of today’s fallen officer. We likewise send our condolences to the men and women of the Baltimore County Police Department. We stand side by side with our fellow officers, day in and day out, on various incidents. Both the job of the fire service as well as police department play a crucial yet similar role, public safety.
We ask that everyone viewing our post to be patient with the police department, as they continue their investigation in Perry Hall. We understand that roads are still closed, that neighborhoods are still blocked off, and that you may be with held from your residence. However, please keep in mind not only are these officers doing their jobs to keep you safe, they are mourning a loss as well. They are mourning the loss of a fellow officer, a friend, and a family member. Yet, they are still out in the streets knowing their lives may be in danger, to protect you and I, their community.
Lastly, we will share any information regarding accounts being set up to benefit the family of the fallen officer. This we hope will come in the near future. As for now, we thank the officers for the part they play in our communities, the protectors.
Amen!
Yet the comments of some on other posts are absolutely mind boggling. God bless all who serve and protect.

***HAPPENING NOW***
Engine 482 is working a kitchen fire in the 1200 blk of Joppa Farm Rd. (Joppatown). 482 had smoke showing from a 1 story single family dwelling on arrival.
Arrival conditions on the dwelling fire in Edgewood this afternoon.
I could see this from Rt. 40 today. Joppa Magnolia was just arriving. So scary! Hope no one involved was hurt!
Kitchen? Glad firemen could contain. So scary when one town house goes....domino effect.
I think dinner is ready!
***WORKING FIRE***
Engine 482 is on the scene of a dwelling fire in the 1800 blk of Grempler Way (Edgewood). First arriving units had fire showing from a 3 story EOG townhome.

Yesterday morning around 0200 hrs Squad 483 was alerted for and assisted units with this fully involved dwelling fire in the unit block of Glenberry Ct. (Box 47-06).
Do they know what caused it? How sad.
Thank you for all our fire, rescue volunteers.
Damn

This past Saturday while mopping up from a brush fire, the crew of Engine 482 met and gave a tour of the engine to Eric, a future firefighter who lives in the first due. It was great to meet him and we look forward to working along side him in a few years!
