Ceremony at County Police and Fire Headquarters Remembers 9/11

The ceremony in Anne Arundel County featured guests such as Col. Edward Rothstein of Fort Meade and County Executive John R. Leopold.

Anne Arundel County residents and officials came together Sunday morning to remember Sept. 11, 2001. 

The ceremony took place at the county's Police and Fire Department headquarters in Millersville and featured appearances from County Executive John R. Leopold, Fire Chief John Ray and Fort Meade's Installation Commander Col. Edward Rothstein. 

A 9/11 memorial of steel beams from the World Trade Center already stood on the lawn of the Police Department, but Sunday's ceremony saw new additions to the memorial.
