On Saturday, May 2, 2026, members from Garrett County's law enforcement agencies held the fifth annual Garrett County Fish with a Cop event at the Accident Pond. Children were paired with police officers for the day's event strengthening relationships between police and the community. The day consisted of officers picking up the selected children, providing rides to the event, fishing, food, games and gifts before returning them home.
