A busy week! (They all are, really) On March 5th, Horsham Fire Company was dispatched almost simultaneously to 2 building fires on opposite sides of the Township. Fire and EMS resources were able to respond to both incidents although an adequate response would have been impossible without our mutual aid partners. I'm afraid to name them, for fear I'll forget one! Just imagine, every other Fire Department in the surrounding area was there and helped out, we surely appreciate it. Also, you'll see this heads-up play by a trash truck driver who noticed smoke in the truck and had the presence of mind to find an open parking lot to dump the burning trash and save the truck. The fire was started by improper disposal of a lithium ion battery but thankfully extinguished quickly with no damage to anything. The lot was then professionally cleaned up and restored to its normal condition. Please remember to follow proper battery disposal guidelines to prevent these kinds of issues!
