MDE in contact with a tanker company that is reporting they have one gasoline tanker that is unaccounted for... command attempting to confirm this is it but HazMat units state fire is not acting like gasoline...

Troymail,

Sounds like some sort of related patch on 800 Tac 3 right now.

Yes you are correct

Dave, Yes the 8 tac channel was used for coordination purposes with Mutual Aid units that didnt have Baltimore City's trunked system capabilities. Such as SHA, MEMA Regional Administrator & a Harford County unit

We were in Baltimore over the weekend so I monitored the activity on the city system. Heard them read off the Virginia tag number on the tractor and the New Jersey tag on the trailer.
