Lawrence Squad 1

This article is a direct street report from our correspondent and has not been edited by the 1st Responder newsroom.

Lawrence Squad 1 operates with a 2020 Pierce Enforcer 1500-GPM rescue pumper. This apparatus replaced the heavy rescue previously designated Rescue 1. This well-designed apparatus carries 750-gallons of water in addition to a compliment of rescue equipment. It allows the Squad to respond on calls that were previously dispatched to Engine 5. When this company was "formed", the city shut down Engine 5. That apparatus became Engine 8, at the Ames St. station, that was closed for the past decade.
