City of San Marcos remembers 9/11 with virtual ceremony

The City of San Marcos held a 9/11 remembrance ceremony on Friday to mark the 19th anniversary of the terrorist attacks. City firefighters, police officers and city staff took part of the event, which was streamed on Facebook to comply with COVID-19 social distancing guidelines. Members of the San Marcos Fire Department raised the same flag that flew 19 years ago.

The San Marcos Bell was rung Friday to memorialize the firefighters who died on 9/11.
