🚒 Two Responses for Delanco Fire Company in the Last 24 Hours 🚒

Over the last 24 hours, members of the Delanco Fire Company responded to two separate incidents, including a mutual aid assignment and a water rescue operation.

🔹 Riverfront Task Force Assignment - Riverside

At approximately 6:45 PM, Quint 1115 was dispatched to the Carroll Street Apartments in Riverside as part of a Riverfront Task Force assignment for a reported odor of gas within the building.

Members from Delanco, Riverside, and Beverly Fire Departments investigated the source of the odor. After a thorough assessment, units cleared the scene without incident.

🔹 Water Rescue Response - Delaware River

At approximately 1:00 AM, Marine 111 and Deputy 1101 were dispatched to the Delaware River in the area of Buoy #22 for a reported male in the water. The victim was reported to have been on a boat that originated from the Linden Avenue Boat Ramp in Philadelphia.

Marine 111 responded alongside other regional marine units to conduct search operations, while Deputy 1101 established a command post on Delaware Avenue near Waterfront Park. Marine 111 remained in service for approximately three hours assisting with the search before being released from the incident. Fortunately, no injuries were reported among responding personnel.

The search efforts were later continued by the United States Coast Guard.

As always, we thank our members for answering the call at all hours of the day and night to assist our community and neighboring jurisdictions. 🇺🇸🚒

🚒🇺🇸 A busy Memorial Day Weekend for your Delanco Fire Company 🇺🇸🚒

♦️ Saturday, Quint 1115 and Fire Police 1118 responded along with other area units to a reported structure fire at the Arbor Green Condos in Edgewater Park. Thankfully, the fire was unfounded and units were recalled while en route. 🔥🚫

ㅤ
♦️ Sunday morning, Quint 1115 and other area units responded to a reported building fire in the unit block of Lafayette Street in Riverside. Thankfully, this incident was also unfounded and was caused by a plastic bag melted on a radiator creating a haze. 🌫️

ㅤ
♦️ Later Sunday morning, Quint 1115 and Deputy 1101 responded to a church in the 300 block of Union Avenue for a reported gas odor. Crews identified the source, secured the gas piping, and placed it out of service for repairs. ⛪🛠️

ㅤ
♦️ Your Delanco Fire Company was also proud to participate in Delanco’s Memorial Day Parade. 🇺🇸 Our command vehicles led the line, followed by Antique 1953 Seagrave Engine 1111, Brush 1116, Engine 1112, Quint 1115 and Fire Police 1118. It was great seeing so many familiar faces out supporting the parade and remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice. ❤️🤍💙

ㅤ
♦️ Yesterday afternoon on Memorial Day, Engine 1112 and Fire Police 1118 responded to The Crossings for an alarm activation. Crews investigated and cleared without incident. 🚨

ㅤ
♦️ Then around 8 PM last night, Quint 1115 and Fire Police 1118 responded to a building fire on South Pavilion Avenue in Riverside. Quint 1115 operated its aerial ladder at the rear of the building, supplied with water by Engine 1224 (Beverly), while FP 1118 handled traffic control at Lafayette & Pavilion and Scott & Bridgeboro. Units cleared around 10 PM after the fire was placed under control, with no injuries reported. 🚒💦 (Photos courtesy of Fire Department Photography)

ㅤ
♦️ And around 11 PM last night, because sleep is for the weary 😅, Deputy 1101 and Engine 1112 responded to a business on Creek Road for an alarm system activation. Crews located a broken sprinkler pipe and secured the system until repairs could be made. 💧🔧

🇺🇸 Memorial Day 🇺🇸

Today we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. Their courage, dedication, and selflessness secured the freedoms we enjoy each day.

As we spend time with family and friends this holiday weekend, let us also take a moment to reflect on those who gave everything and the families who continue to carry their memory.

From all of us at the Delanco Township Fire Department, we thank and remember our fallen heroes.

❤️🤍💙 *We will never forget.*
