October 21, 2025 - Rescue crews assembled to review and practice using specialized tools that are not typically employed during routine incidents. Assistant Chief Stromelo and Captain Kohr provided instruction on techniques for flapping the roof of a bus.
During the training session, the Chief, Squad, and Traffic units responded to a single-vehicle accident in the first-due area, while the remaining members continued honing their technical rescue skills.
