The Baltimore Fire Department held a moment of silence at 11 a.m. Tuesday in honor of three firefighters who perished a year ago while battling a row house blaze.
Prior to the silence, a 9-1-1 dispatcher read a tribute to Lt. Kelsey Sadler Engine -14, FF/PM Kenneth Lacayo Engine-14 who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
“Today we remember our fallen members who sacrificed their lives for the City of Baltimore 1 year ago, January 24, 2022, operating at box 55-10, 205 South Stricker St. Our recruits performed their daily reading of this event at line up, followed by a memorial workout the recruits developed themselves to show remembrance of this sacrifice,” Baltimore fire officials wrote on the department’s Facebook page.
The fire was determined incendiary. But no charges have been filed.
