Gov. Tom Wolf has ordered Pennsylvania state flags to fly at half-staff at all state offices and facilities to honor a Dover Township fire police officer who died while doing maintenance on a fire vehicle.
Grant Froman, 55, was pronounced dead at 9:59 a.m. Wednesday, June 6, at York Hospital, according to York County Coroner Pam Gay. Dover Township Deputy Fire Chief Brian Widmayer said Froman was very active in the department, responding to fire and crash scenes as a fire police officer and also volunteering his services in other ways. Froman was in the driveway of his Dover Township home and was working on the fire department's traffic-control unit when he was found unresponsive by a neighbor, according to Gay and township fire officials.
