Madison Fire and Rescue

We had a great opportunity to be involved in a large scale multi agency train derailment drill in Huntsville today. Thanks to Huntsville Fire, Huntsville PD, Madison PD, Huntsville City Schools, EMA, Red Cross, Huntsville Utilities, Alabama A&M PD, HEMSI, and all the role players. We might be missing a few but it shows with large incidents of this type that can occur at a moments notice, it takes the entire community to rally together for the best possible outcome for all involved.

Just after 4AM this morning, Madison firefighters were dispatched for mutual aid with Monrovia Fire and Rescue for the report of a house on fire in the 200 Block of Alder Branch Ct. Engine 3 went on scene a short time later to find flames out of the roof of a two story single family dwelling. Madison firefighters began an offensive attack with Monrovia, and shortly after arrival, Battalion 1 requested Ladder 1 for additional manpower. The searches were negative, the fire was extinguished, and all crews returned to service.

Be safe as you celebrate the Big 250.
