Crews responded to multiple medical emergencies, including cardiac emergencies, respiratory emergencies, motor vehicle crashes, an overdose, and more.
Engine 1 provided mutual aid to Little Compton for their working house fire on Saturday, followed by a utility shed fire later that evening in North Westport. Crews also handled a small exterior electrical fire early Sunday afternoon and answered several alarm activations throughout the week.
On duty crews were assisted by off duty and on-call firefighters. Mutual aid EMS was received while crews were on the fire scene Saturday evening.
In between calls crews are kept busy training, pre-planing, maintaining equipment, the stations and our apparatus. We have answered over 600 calls for service since the start of the new year.”-Westport Fire Department.
