On Monday, October 19, 2015, at approximately 3:52 PM,
Carroll County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to the Liberty Gas Station,

foot.
An employee of the store reported that the "taser"
was used on him, but no injuries were sustained from this incident.
Carroll County Sheriff's Deputies, Maryland State Police
Troopers and a MSP Bloodhound all took part in the search for the suspects, but
at this time, they have not been located.
Suspect #1 is described as a black male, 6' - 6' 5"
tall, medium build, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with "Baltimore
Ravens" on the front, black pants with lettering down the right leg, black
shoes, black ski mask, and armed with a "Taser" type device.
Suspect #2 is described as a black male, 5' 10" - 6'
tall, medium build, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt under a dark colored
jacket / sweatshirt, black pants, black shoes, black ski mask, and armed with a
semi-automatic handgun.

November 27, 2008: Penny Riordan Carroll Seniors and the Great Depression
November 27, 2008: Penny
Riordan Carroll Seniors and the Great Depression
In November 2008,
writer Penny Riordan gave us a first-hand account of Carroll Seniors and the
Great Depression. November 27, 2008 KED
On November 27, 2008 I wrote:
Penny Riordan Carroll Seniors and the Great Depression
November 27, 2008
For those who have missed the reporting of Penny Riordan,
the former education reporter for in the Carroll County Times, do not
despair.
She is still with the paper; however she has become the
editor of the newspaper’s “Carroll Seniors” publication.
The November 2008 edition of the paper has a great deal of
excellent content on the Great Depression, which has certainly been in the
forefront of the news these days as the nation continues to wrangle with
economic turmoil.
Unfortunately, the content is not online. So you will have to walk on your feet to a
nearby hungry store and pick up a copy at a newsstand. How quaint.
I recently grabbed a copy and revisited the joys of actually
holding a newspaper in my hand as I poured over the excellent writing… You should do likewise. It is some great reading…
Kevin Dayhoff November 27, 2008
“Carroll Seniors”
“The Great Depression: those who lived the decade compare it to the
current economic crisis”
“Banks shutting down.
Stock market troubles.
Unemployment.
In today’s economy, these phrases are used often. But they
also conjure up memories of another economic crisis that has been brought up a
lot more in recent months: the great depression.
But for those who lived through the great depression, things
going on in the economy today just don’t quite compare.”
Carroll Seniors is a free publication distributed by the
Carroll County Times. It is produced by
Penny Riordan, the former education reporter for the Times.

Carroll State's Attorney warns about BGE bill scams
October 12, 2015
The Carroll County State's Attorney's Office is warning
residents about a utility bill payment scam targeting both businesses and
individual residents.
The Economic Crimes Unit of the state's attorney's office
has received information about several recent incidents in which a caller tells
the victim their BGE bills have not been paid, and threatens service will be
disconnected if immediate payment isn't made, according to a new release from
State's Attorney Brian DeLeonardo. The caller then requests payment through a
reloadable credit card.

Why You Should Run from “Bible Believing Churches”
October 6, 2015 by Adam Ericksen
The Bible is a document written by human beings who tried to
recognize what God was doing in their lives. But it’s not inerrant.
Interestingly, if the Bible were inerrant you would think it would tell us. It
simply doesn’t use those terms. The Bible never says, “Hi! I’m the Bible. I’m
the inerrant Word of God. Believe in me!”
There are disagreements that run throughout the Bible. Those
disagreements are one of the things that I love about the Bible! The Bible
models for us how to wrestle with God and ask questions about faith.
The Bible contains human testimony about how God works in
the world, but it is not God’s inerrant Word. The Bible points beyond itself to
God, and in the New Testament, to the God revealed in Jesus. The Bible even
claims that Jesus is the Word of God, not the Bible itself.
[…]
Jesus claimed that the scriptures are limited. You cannot
have eternal life by believing in the Bible. In fact, when we elevate the Bible
above God, it blocks us from our only access to eternal life.
The Bible is important, but we are not Biblians. We are
Christians, called to come to Jesus.
That’s why you should run from “Bible believing churches.”
Churches aren’t meant to believe in the Bible. They are meant to believe in the
God revealed through Jesus.

I love it when Carroll County leadership all works together.
It's a win-win for all Carroll County citizens. I don't care if they all do not
agree all the time. If they all agreed we would only need to pay for one of
them and candidly we need all of them. I just want them to be agreeable and
work together. This group gets it.
Carroll
County State's Attorney's Office, Sunday, October 11, 2015, 1 pm: A
message from State's Attorney Brian DeLeonardo - I want to thank everyone who
donated during our 30 hour Cops on the Rooftop event that raised money for
Special Olympics. We raised $9,500, and are still counting! We not only
exceeded our goal, but have raised more than any other location in the State
which is a testament to the generosity of Carroll County citizens.
I also would like to thank Dunkin Donuts for their
hospitality, the athletes for providing great inspiration, and the volunteers
(including many from my Office) that helped make it such a success.
Finally, thank you to my partners on the roof - Westminster
Police Chief Jeff Spaulding, Carroll Co. Sheriff Jim Dewees, & MSP
Westminster Barrack Commander Lt. Pat McCrory. The great relationship we have
on a daily basis shines through when we pull together for such a great cause.
See you next yr.!

Public
safety executives from the Westminster Police Department, the Carroll County
Sheriff’s Office, the Maryland State Police and the Carroll County State’s
Attorney’s Office will collect donations for Special Olympics Maryland on the
rooftop of the Westminster Dunkin’ Donuts the weekend of October 10th and 11th.
Anyone
who ever thought nothing good could come from cops sitting around (or in this
case ON) a donut shop might reconsider that notion when “Cops on Rooftops” – a
fundraiser for Special Olympics Maryland -- comes to the Westminster Dunkin’
Donuts location on Saturday, October 10th through Sunday, October 11th, 2015.
As
part of a national fundraising effort for Special Olympics, Chief Jeff
Spaulding of the Westminster Police Department, Carroll County Sheriff Jim
DeWees, Lieutenant Pat McCrory of the Maryland State Police and Carroll County
State’s Attorney Brian DeLeonardo have volunteered to spend the weekend on the
roof of Dunkin’ Donuts restaurant in Westminster (140 Shopping Center on Route 140). Their collective fundraising goal is $9,000
and they have vowed that they will not come down until all of that money has
been collected.
In
2014, there were four (4) Police Departments across Maryland who participated
in this effort and raised more than $25,000 for the Athletes of Special
Olympics Maryland. This year six (6)
Dunkin’ Donuts across the state will take part in the program: College Park,
Frederick, Laurel, Hyattsville, California (MD) and Westminster.
Dunkin’
Donuts customers and the general public alike are encouraged to stop by and
support the officers in their efforts to raise both funds and awareness for the
Law Enforcement Torch Run® for Special Olympics Maryland. Along with law
enforcement volunteers who will be on the rooftop, other officers and Special
Olympics Athletes will greet customers inside and outside of the store, passing
around donation jars and rallying support for this great cause. If you can’t make the event, please visit us
at www.copsonrooftops.com and donate to the Westminster location as we reach
for our goal of $9,000 in 2015.
According
to Chief Spaulding, “Cops and donuts have a long, humorous history together, so
it was only fitting that we team up with the great folks at Dunkin’ Donuts for
this light-hearted event. This event
allows us to do something great for an incredible organization and poke a
little fun at ourselves at the same time.
What could be better than that?”
The
event conceived by a group of the law enforcement officers from Illinois, who
in 2009, took to the rooftops of 94 Dunkin’ Donuts locations across the state
and raised more than $182,000.
Special
Olympics Maryland (SOMD) is a year-round sports organization dedicated to
providing quality sports training and competition opportunities to Maryland’s
children and adults with intellectual disabilities and/or closely related
development disabilities. SOMD currently provides thousands of sports

great success
$8,332.00 raised in 30 hours in an event full of good humor
for a worthy cause
By Kevin Dayhoff Posted 9/29/2010
A rested Westminster Police Chief Jeff Spaulding gave a
report on the recent “Cops on Rooftops” fundraising event at the Westminster mayor and
common council meeting last Monday.
He looked none the worse for wear after spending over 30
hours perched on the roof of the Dunkin' Donuts, on Route 140 in Westminster last Saturday
and Sunday.
After the obligatory humor about cops and doughnuts,
Spaulding confessed that he was proud that he only ate two doughnuts in the 30
hours he spend with his colleague, Lt. Andrew Winner, commander of the Maryland
State Police Westminster barrack, raising money for Special Olympics Athletes.
“Well, we endured the heat, the cold, the wind, and the
rain, but the fundraiser was a great success.
We raised well in excess of our $5,000 goal for Special Olympics last weekend…”
The total came to $8,332.00, said Spaulding with some pride
and a bit of subdued amazement that they surpassed their goal by so much.
At 9:30 last Saturday night the two intrepid police officers
had already raised over $3,500.00 when Explore Carroll visited to check their
progress (and their welfare.)
“It’s going well,” said Spaulding over the sounds of the
radio playing and the steady stream of well-wishers from below. Up on the rooftop, Winner and Spaulding had
nested quite well, with lawn chairs, food, and an awning overhead set-up to
provide all the comforts of home – on a highway store rooftop, that is.
How Spaulding only ate two doughnuts is amazing since their
rooftop digs were constantly bombarded with the aromas of doughnuts being made
in the store below.
“Oh, geeze, what’s that?
It’s apple. I think they are now
making something with apples” (in the store below,) lamented Spaulding at one
point. “Oh man, this is torture,” he
laughed as he traded words of encouragement with Winner not to eat too many
doughnuts throughout the evening.
Of course, both Winner and Spaulding are athletes themselves
and do not look like they eat too many doughnuts. “Look at this guy,” Spaulding said of Winner
last Saturday night.
“Does he look like he eats a lot of doughnuts?”
"Don't answer that," Winner said.
“The citizens of Carroll
County
Winner quickly added in agreement, “I have been truly amazed
at the generosity of Carroll
County
Maryland State Police spokesperson Greg Shipley was also
there last Saturday evening to cheer Winner and Spaulding on.
“It’s commendable…,” said Shipley. When asked for further comment, Shipley
explained that all the attention needed to be on the two police officers and
the special needs athletes they support.
“Hey, I’m just here to congratulate them on what looks to be
a successful event. It’s nice that two
officers give-up their weekend for such a good cause,” said a smiling Shipley
as he traded humor with Winner and Spaulding from the parking lot below.
"It's a great cause," Spaulding said of Special
Olympics. “Law enforcement has a long
history of supporting Special Olympics.”
So does Spaulding. He
is a central regional coordinator for the annual Law Enforcement Torch Run for
Special Olympics, and has participated in that event since 1986.
His interest started 23 years ago when he was an officer in
the Howard County Police Department and was asked to participate in Maryland 's first Law
Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics.
Since then, he has volunteered to raise money for and
awareness about Special Olympics. He
attends Special Olympics competitions as far away as Japan to serve as a security guard,
awards presenter or volunteer.
As for the doughnut shop rooftop stunt, the idea came from
law enforcement officers in Illinois
who took to the rooftops of 94 Dunkin' Donuts locations in 2009, and raised
more than $182,000.
In Maryland last year, one
location in Laurel
participated in the promotion and raised $7,000. This year, Westminster
joined three other participating locations in College Park ,
Ocean City ,
and Glen Burnie .
Last Monday night at the Westminster council meeting, Spaulding explained
that a retired state trooper made a special trip to donate $1,000.00 on Sunday
and the owner of the Dunkin’ Donuts also donated $1,000.00 to the cause.
“And folks are still asking if they can still donate,” said
Spaulding. “And the answer is yes, just
be in touch with me at the (Westminster Police) station.”
For information about donating to the fund for Special
Olympics of Maryland, go to the organization's website at www.somd.org or call
410-789-6677, or call Spaulding at the police station at 410-848-4646. Contributing doughnuts is optional.

Sat. morning, October 10, 2015 Water main break in
Westminster Maryland
At approximately 7:00 a.m. this morning the City of
Westminster experienced a water main break in the area of Route 27 and Hahn
Road.
This break resulted in a temporary drop in water pressure in
City's water system. Water pressure has since been restored to all but
the residences and businesses in the immediate area of the break that are
currently without water as repairs are being made.
Town Mall has not been affected. Other areas of the system
may experience water discoloration for the duration of the day, but the water
is safe to drink.
