Division Chief Robert Brewer has served with the Anne Arundel County Fire Department for 29 years. He is currently assigned as one of the department’s Shift Commanders, responsible for supervising a shift of nearly 200 firefighters and paramedics.

While working on June 9th, 2018, Chief Brewer was alerted along with other firefighters to a dwelling fire on Waterbury Heights Drive in Crownsville. During his response, communications advised firefighters that there was a person trapped in the home. Chief Brewer was the first to arrive, and found the home completely engulfed in fire in the front. Neighbors and family members had thrown a ladder to a rear bedroom window where the trapped occupant was believed to be. There was heavy black smoke from the window and flames from the other windows around it. With no other firefighters on the scene, Chief Brewer used the ladder to make entry and search for the victim. Chief Brewer located the victim and was attempting to remove her as additional firefighters arrived to assist him. The victim was removed from the room as the fire conditions intensified, causing the need for Chief Brewer and another firefighter to bail out of the room head first down the ladder. The victim was transferred over to the care of paramedics who transported her to the hospital in critical condition. Despite the heroic actions of Chief Brewer and the other firefighters, she later died from her injuries.

It is for Chief Brewer’s actions on June 9th as well as his actions every day that he comes to work that he received Northern Anne Arundel County Chamber of Commerce Firefighter of the Year Community Safety Award. Thank you to Katrina Krauss Photography for the photo of Fire Chief Graves, Division Chief Brewer, and member of the NAACCC Board of Directors Mr. John Long, President & CEO of The Bank of Glen Burnie. ...

How are the occupants? We were right behind them and are stunned we were able to get out of the way.

Road is currently closed in both directions. Several church members at the Gas Station waiting the road to reopen in 16 min. according to police.
