CENTER GROTON W/F 4/19/07

Sorry I'm a little late on posting these pics. I was unable to get to many due to being returned upon arrival. The Center Groton department along with automatic aid of a truck and engine from Old Mystic were dispatched to Lambtown road for a structure fire. Upon arrival of G-65 with a 5 man crew they found a 2 story structure with fire coming from the second story window. G-65 stretched a line and made a interior attack that quickly knock down the fire. The regional tanker task force was called to due to the lack of hydrants in the area. Mutual aid from Ledyard, Gales Ferry, North Stonington, Poquetanuck, and Poquonnock Bridge.

Busy day for Gales Ferry

The Gales Ferry department had a busy afternoon. We responded to a two car mva at the corner of Long Cove road and Rt.12. While on scene there units were called to a gasoline spill at the local Henny Penny. Gales Ferry engine R-21 to take up from the mva to respond to the spill. While working the spill the mva was cleaned up and the rescue responded to the fuel spill. Found about 2 cups of gasoline that had leaked from the car onto the ground. Gales Ferry units were then dispatched to a water emergency. Gales Ferry units all returned to the fire house for about ten minutes before being dispatched for a medical alarm at the senior house complex.
