Two Montgomery County, Maryland, firefighters have been charged with intentionally spraying water onto a community baseball field located next to the Silver Spring/Four Corners fire station.
The pair allegedly sprayed gallons of water onto the field at Montgomery Blair High School on University Boulevard, “driven by frustration due to repeated incidents involving baseballs striking personal vehicles, the fire station, and departmental equipment,” according to the charging document filed by the Maryland National Capital Park Police.
Career firefighters Capt. Chris Reilly and Master Firefighter Alan Barnes are each charged with three misdemeanors: malicious destruction of property, conspiracy to commit malicious destruction of property and disorderly conduct.
