The City was notified this morning that Miles City Fire & Rescue Captain Tim McGlothlin succumbed to injuries following a mountain biking accident last night near sunset at Strawberry Hill Recreation Area.

I have issued a proclamation ordering all City flags to be immediately lowered to half-staff, until further notice, to honor his memory.

His family is en route from Laurel and funeral arrangements will be announced shortly. Our hearts are heavy this morning.

thank you for lowering the flags to half staff to honor Tim. This is a terrible loss to the whole community. i too sit here in shock at the very sad news. my prayers and condolences go out to his family and his extended family at the fire department.

First Liam and now Tim. The Caledonian family has had too many loses. My thoughts have weighed heavy today for the family and friends of these two remarkable men. God bless you all.

Tim was an awesome guy. He was always there for my sister Val, my family, and anyone who needed help. His kindness and fun nature cannot be overstated. He was always helping someone. He will be missed. We all miss you Tim! Godspeed. Dave Smith

I second that Dave!! Jamie Mendenhall

God Bless Val and his family during this time. May you all find peace through God and eachother.

It sure is a shame that so many worthless humans remain and the good, nay, GREAT ones are taken from us.
