Mark Franklin Logsdon served in the U.S. Army.
Gunfire
Deputy First Class Mark Logsdon and Senior Deputy Patrick Dailey were shot and killed by a wanted subject shortly before noon.
The deputies had been dispatched to the restaurant, at 3412 Merchant Boulevard in Abingdon, after a report was received that the subject was there. Deputy Dailey located the man sitting at a table inside of the restaurant and engaged him in conversation. Without warning, the man produced a handgun and fatally shot Deputy Dailey in the head.
The man fled into the parking lot where he was located by other deputies sitting in a car. The subject opened fire on the deputies, striking Deputy Logsdon. Despite being wounded, Deputy Logsdon was able to return fire, along with other deputies, and killed the subject.
Deputy Logsdon was a U.S. Army veteran and had served with the Harford County Sheriff's Office for 16 years.

In tribute
I served 1985 to 1993. You served too, before the badge - different uniform, same idea. You go where you are sent and you do not get to pick the call.
Deputy First Class Logsdon gave the Harford County Sheriff's Office 16 years.
Thank you for your service to the Bel Air community. Thank you for your service before it. Gone but never to be forgotten.
Rest easy, brother.
