Rescue 56-3’s crew was assigned to the roof along with Quint 54 (Bridgeport Fire Department) crews opened up the roof and assisted with extinguishment of the fire in the roof void spaces. Members were clear around 2:30 Am this morning.

This morning members gathered to go over ice rescue equipment on Marine 56. We would like to remind the public with the rising temperatures over the next few weeks, ice will become thin even though it may look solid. Please use caution while around the ice!
