Maryland volunteer firefighter killed in crash in Pennsylvania
A 21-year-old member of two Maryland volunteer fire companies died after a crash with a parked tractor-trailer on Wednesday, May 28, in Pennsylvania.
Joscelynne Pannone was traveling on I-81 southbound, in Daughin County, when she lost control on the wet road and crashed into the back of a parked tractor-trailer along the right shoulder, according to the Pennsylvania State Police. Pannone was pronounced dead at the scene.
The Woodlawn Volunteer Fire Company, in Baltimore County, shared its condolences to Pannone, an active EMT/firefighter. Pannone was also a member of the Waldorf Volunteer Fire Department.
"Please keep her family, friends, and both fire department agencies in your hearts and prayers," the Woodlawn Volunteer Fire Company said on social media. "She will truly be missed by many."
The Waldorf Volunteer Fire Department said she joined its department in 2023. She had previously been a member of the Potomac Heights Volunteer Fire Department.
"During her time at Waldorf, Joscelynne assisted with the fire prevention program at Company 3, in addition to providing emergency services even while she was continuing her education," the Waldorf Volunteer Fire Company said. "Please keep her family, and friends in your thoughts and prayers."
