Two geese enjoy Monday's warm weather.
These two geese flew the coop Monday to appreaciate the mid-seventies temperatures. One Patch reader noticed the pair catching rays outside the Harford County Detention Center, and decided to share the sight with the rest of us. After the fog of this morning cleared away, I've noticed birds chirping, trees budding and a warm breeze all harkening the coming of spring. I hope to get out and enjoy it. How about you? Have your own shots that bring spring to mind? Share them here, just click "Upload Photos and Video" to get started.

A Who's Who of law enforcement, courts and community leaders attended a symposium on addressing recidivism.
The Harford County Detention Center is expected to reach maximum capacity by 2020 based on current projections—unless there is a change in inmate population. With no more room to build at current jail's site, and usually a decade needed for researching and building a new facility, the clock is ticking.

One thing Bane hopes will impact the jail's population in a positive way is reducing the number of repeat criminal offenders. With that goal in mind, Harford County's first re-entry summit, which took place Thursday morning at Harford Community College, was the first step in the process. "There's no reason […

Inmate Michael Ray Malpass was found unresponsive in his cell Thursday night.
A Harford County Detention Center inmate was found dead in his cell Thursday night, according to the Harford County Sheriff's Office.

There were no signs of foul play in the death. Malpass, 26, had been held without bond at the detention since Nov. 18. He was …
