During this time
of year, many of the surrounding departments rely on each other for cover
crews while they attend their annual installation of officers banquets.
This allows members of the department to take a night off to relax and
enjoy an evening without having to worry about answering calls. As
usual, E-842 brought the infamous "Blackwood Bubble" to our friends at
Pine Hill. The crew covered a fairly busy company without turning a
wheel.
At 18:38,
as 842's crew was enjoying their meal, E-841 was dispatched to 70 Farrier
Ave in Washington Twp for a dwelling fire. 10-302 arrived to find a
single family dwelling with smoke showing and an occupant hanging out of a
second floor window. The occupant was quickly removed via ground
ladder. 8402 (Robb) arrived and assumed division C. E-841
arrived and took first due orders stretching an 1 3/4" handline through
division A and extinguished the fire within minutes. Crews from
Washington Twp and Blackwood remained on location overhauling until 20:15. |
