FALLSTON, MD—A shed fire in the Fallston area led to a brush fire on Tuesday afternoon.
During the afternoon hours of February 25, 2025, units from Fallston Volunteer Fire & Ambulance Company and Jarrettsville Volunteer Fire Company responded to the 2500-block of Thames Court for a shed fire that subsequently extended into the tree line.
