Roll Of Honor Recipient
Officer Erdman of the old Northwestern District, had arrested a suspect for illegal gambling on August 3,
1914 and while leading him to the call box, the suspect pulled a razor and cut his throat severely. Officer Erdman fell to
his knees clutching his throat to stop the gushing blood and still had the presence of mind to pull his service revolver and
fire 5 shots at the fleeing suspect, striking him three times fatally wounding the suspect.
Officer Erdman had joined the department February 4, 1907 and retired in 1947 with 40 years of service and
mandatory age of 70. Officer Erdman’s son Walter joined the Baltimore Police Department in 1946 and was assigned to
the Northern District. Officer Walter Erdman’s son, Art, joined the Baltimore County Police Department and is
still actively serving and he to is a Medal Of Honor Recipient.
The Erdman family is truly a family of service, dedication and bravery.
