Posted 7 months ago not sure if this made it on here or not, but a FF was killed in a dept. a county away. I think it happened yesterday or monday. a hose or pipe of some sort on an arial blew apart and hit him. he died later that day. he was the nephew of a chief from neighboring dept, so it hits home a little bit. please keep him, his dept, and his family in your prayers. |

| Posted 7 months ago here's an update...actually the story from firefighterclosecalls.com: "The Deputy Chief of the Lawrence Park Township VFD (Erie County, PA) Mike Crotty, was tragically killed in the Line of Duty early this evening at a working industrial building fire. Companies were on the mutual aid run, for the working factory fire to the Harbor Creek VFD, when for a yet undetermined reason, the Lawrence Park aerial ladder had a catastrophic failure when a portion of the waterway and master stream separated from the main ladder, falling, striking the Deputy Chief, who was operating in a command role. Initial reports are that the device had a pinnable waterway and it was flowing water at the time of the failure.
please pray for the family |

| Posted 5 months ago We lost an Assistant Chief of a neighboring department in January. He worked as a wrecker driver and as killed in a MVA with a rig. Later we found out he swerved to avoid a car in front of him that had 2 children in the back of it. He gave his life to save those kids and we all miss him still.
