Being a First Responder means dedicating your life to protecting the lives of your community and being ready to answer the call whenever and wherever you're needed.

This month marks 37 years since Ann Furst and her daughter, Helen Larkin, were murdered at Ann's home in Aberdeen.
Although decades have passed, their case has not been forgotten. Our detectives continue to pursue leads and seek the answers Ann and Helen’s family deserves.

Recently, we worked with Dateline to feature this case in its Cold Case Spotlight, bring renewed attention to this unsolved murder and, hopefully, reach someone who may have information that could help us solve this case.

Read the full feature: https://www.nbcnews.com/dateline/cold-case-spotlight/ann-furst-helen-larkin-maryland-cold-case-rcna603935

If you have any information about these 1989 murders, please contact us. You can also submit an anonymous tip at www.p3tips.com.

Ann Furst and Helen Larkin were found dead in Ann’s home in Aberdeen, Maryland, on Oct. 18, 1989.

Traffic Sergeant Eaton is back with a Traffic Tip Tuesday for National School Bus Safety week:

Last week the HCSO's Traffic Safety Coordinator notified me of a concerning infraction. Footage captured by a Harford County Public Schools bus camera showed a dangerous incident that had occurred earlier that day. I shared the information with the Traffic Unit Deputies, and asked them to monitor the area for additional violations. The next day Deputies worked the area and issued citations and warnings, including a citation for traveling at 50 miles per hour in a posted 30 mile per hour zone.

Many people think that the school bus camera system does nothing but send out automated citations. These cameras, along with the coordinator who reviews every video, actually help us to find repeat school bus offenders and identify high problem areas. This allows us to provide targeted enforcement in the areas that need it most.

Think of a big yellow school bus as a moving caution sign, your immediate response should be to slow down and be careful. There is no excuse for aggressive and dangerous driving, especially when it endangers the lives of our students.
