Last night at approx 630pm - Rush units were dispatched to Rt251 at Rt 390 for a Motor Vehicle Accident with possible entrapment.

Units arrived onscene to find everyone had self extricated and thankfully only minor injuries.

This is a friendly reminder… as the weather gets nicer and we all drive in a good mood, windows down, sun shining bright, wind blowing thru our hair, distracted by the newest Taylor Swift hits… keep your eyes on the road and the distractions to a minimum…

Save the air guitar and karaoke for your shower!

DRIVE SAFE! 🤟🏻🎸🎤

Last night members trained on basic Forcible Entry skills… forcing inward and outward swinging doors.
A basic skill that we need to be proficient in for easy quick access.

Thank you to Henrietta Fire District for allowing us to utilize their Training Grounds and props
