HARD AT WORK

9/11 MEMORIAL

Working in coordination with the City of New York Fire De- partment, Morrisville Fire/ Rescue was able to receive a piece of steel from the World Trade Center that could be used as the centerpiece for a future Memorial in Morrisville. HINDU SOCIETY VISIT

Ladder One responded to this vehicle accident on I-40 east bound and Airport Boulevard in July. The Fire/Rescue department responded to 56 vehicle accidents this quarter, including more than 25 calls in the month of August.

Fire suppression does not always involve structures and vehicles. In July, Engineer Benji Cole, Captain Brian Alexander and others from B-shift responded to a small pine straw fire.

Firefighters from Ladder 1 stopped by the Hindu Society of North Carolina in August and spoke with teens and younger children. The short talk included infor- mation about fire response, life safety tips and how to best respond to emergencies at home.

Morrisville Fire Rescue welcomes our newest addition, Firefighter Ryan Claugherty. Ryan is originally from Michigan, but came to Morrisville from Fayetteville. He is a paramedic, and likes diving and the outdoors.
