Seventh call of the day was for a large animal rescue on Shepherds Store Road. Members from Company 1 Bedford, Company 13 Stewartsville, and Medic 14-5 arrived to find a six year old horse trapped in 6 feet of water in a below ground holding tank. Crews used a haul system and pumped out the majority of water to remove the horse. Once out the horse was able to stand on her own and eat! ... See MoreSee Less

Pretty cool and very accurate. I assume the "newly organized fire department" was Big Island?

I pretty sure the list here hasn't changed much over the years...but I'm confident that you guys get the most done and do it safely as possible...no fire or building is worth a life..fireman or civilian...thanks for all you do... what we see and what we don't see...

Fourth run of the morning sent BFD units to the 5500 block of Big Island Highway for a vehicle over the embankment with entrapment. Miraculously, the driver was able to telephone for help; the vehicle came to rest down an embankment in a thick area of vegetation and couldn't be seen by passing motorists. The patient was extricated from the vehicle, hauled to street level via stokes basket, and transported to BMH by Medic 14-2. VASP is investigating the accident. ... See MoreSee Less
