Good Morning

February 7^th, 2007

As much as I hate cold and snow – it sure was pretty early this morning.

But then again, in a conversation this morning, with the Westminster City Clerk, Laurell Taylor – she reminded me of a Garfield quote: “February of the Monday of the year.” Oh – how true.

A dark stretch of eastbound Rte 140 between the Rte 27 overpass and Center St. in Westminster was the scene of a fatal accident involving a bicyclist and a Carroll County Sheriff’s Deputy late Tuesday evening.

The accident was first dispatched at 10:40 PM and Westminster, Pleasant Valley and Reese Fire Departments responded.

There is a number of street lights out in this dangerous stretch of highway and the fire companies stayed on scene for hours to illuminate the area as the accident reconstruction team from the Maryland State Police conducted a joint investigation of the accident with the Westminster Police Department.

Police agencies from Westminster, the Maryland State Police and the Sheriff’s Department remained at the accident for several hours.

No additional details were available as this is being posted. More information will be posted as it becomes available.
