Tonight we had the privilege along with Lafayette Fire Company and West Lampeter Township Police in assisting with the rescue of a 3 month old bald eagle that had fallen from its nest. After the removal of a fishing hook from its beak and a clean bill of health, members from the 3 organizations assisted with putting the eagle back in its nest. Thanks to everyone involved with the seamless operation, the eagle is safely back home and momma and its sibling are taking very well!

We would like to express our deepest condolences to the brothers and sisters of Walnuttown Fire Company after the tragic loss of their Chief and Assistant Chief in a UTV accident while operating on a call yesterday afternoon. Rest easy chiefs.

The members of the Lafayette Fire Company express our deepest sympathy to the families of Walnuttown Fire Co. Chief Jeff Buck and Asst. Chief Robert Shick, who were tragically killed in the line of duty on Saturday April 4, 2026.

Chief Buck and Asst. Chief Shick were operating a UTV while engaging in a search for a missing person when their vehicle was struck by a car along Rte. 222 in northern Berks County.

We would also like to express our heartfelt condolences to our brothers and sisters from Berks Company 32 who are left to carry on the legacy of their departed fire service family.

While no words can fully express the depth of compassion or ease the pain of loss, please know that others are there for you. We mourn with you, shed tears with you and stand by you all at this time.
