“As we continue to mourn our fallen heroes, we are conducting an aggressive investigation into the cause of the fire that took their lives.

“In coordination with our federal and local partners, the state is immediately doubling the reward for information in the case to $100,000. We urge anyone with tips or information regarding the person of interest to contact federal or state authorities.

“I want to thank all Marylanders for the tremendous outpouring of support for our firefighters and their loved ones.”
