Search underway for missing guardsman after Maryland flood
Kate Bowman, owner of a local café, said Hermond was trying to help her when he disappeared into the flood waters.
With water at waist level, Bowman, 41, said she grabbed her cat and escaped from the window of her flooded shop.
"I could barely see anything and I could barely hear anything" because the waters were so loud, Bowman told The Baltimore Sun. "He stepped over the ledge to try to get to me, and he was washed away."
