“Busy day for group 2. Responding to multiple medicals and this 3 car motor vehicle accident at the same time quickly taxed our service.

Engine 2, Medic 1, Medic 2, and Car 2 responded and provided care. The jaws of life were requested to assist with extrication.

Prior to this emergency being resolved Engine 2 had to break away to respond for a fire emergency, this required a ladder to be driven from the station by our EMS/training captain due to no additional staffing. Great job by group 2 and all of our members always doing more with less.

Special shoutout to the mutual aid we received!”-Fairhaven Firefighters Association, Local 1555.
