Md. gov. attends funeral of slain Harford Co. deputy

Gov. Larry Hogan and others are paying tribute to a slain Harford County sheriff’s deputy who is being laid to rest.

Funeral services were held Saturday at Harford Community College for Deputy Mark Logsdon. He and Deputy Patrick Dailey were fatally shot Feb. 10 at a Panera Bread restaurant in Abingdon. The man who opened fire on the deputies, 68-year-old Brian Evans, was also shot and killed.

Logsdon was a 16-year-veteran of the Sheriff’s Department and an Army veteran.

According to a pool report from Saturday’s service, Hogan quoted a Bible verse extolling the man who lays down his life for his friends. He said the entire state of Maryland is grieving the loss of one of its heroes.
