The fire service can be challenging, as well as rewarding. I believe that no matter how long you are a member (and I have been a member since 1968), you can never say, "I have seen it all!" While many alarms are routine, eventually you use your training and skills to cope with a situation that you have not encountered before.

Car Tangled in Wires

A Toyota sedan traveling northbound became tangled in wires on Huntington Bay Road Tuesday.

The incident occurred after a large truck, traveling in front of the vehicle, struck a limb which pulled the live wires onto the roadway. The wires got caught up in the tires of the vehicle as it drove over of them.

The driver of the car was instructed by first responders from Halesite Fire Department to remain in the vehicle until Long Island Power Authority personnel arrived. Fire and LIPA officials eventually freed the vehicle and driver from danger.
