Police in the Baltimore suburb of Havre de Grace say a man who called their headquarters and said he was going to come there and kill an officer tried to make good on his plan and wound up smashing his vehicle into the building on Sunday.
No officers were hurt but he wound up under arrest and in a hospital after being tased. The building was severely damaged. According to police the man, whose name wasn't provided, called and made his intentions known. Officers found him in his car in the city some 37 miles northeast of Baltimore.Ashley White received her earliest combat action badge from the United States Army soon after the first lieutenant arrived in Afghanistan. The silver military award, recognizing soldiers who've been personally engaged by an attacker during conflict, was considered an achievement in and of itself as well as an affirming rite of passage for the newly deployed. White had earned it for using her own body to shield a group of civilian women and children from gunfire that broke out in the midst of her third mission in Kandahar province. All of them survived. She never mentioned the badge to anyone in her battalion.
