Last night after the Yankee game, was listening to my scanner since I was on call for ems. Heard PD get dispatched for a hit and run mva. 10 seconds later, fire was rolled for a car fire at the same location, then my pager went off for a 2 car mva at the same location. Medic unit gets on scene and says it's a 1 car roll over. ended up being a car vs. tree mva, don't know where the rest of the descriptions came from.

Ok today we had an elevator rescue drill right across from station 2 after the drill every rig, 3 rigs, went to station 2 for lunch......about 1 hour later a call came in for an automatic fire alarm in the station 1 area, or on the other side of town, so we all got in our rigs and raced across town to find out it was nothing and boy did that suck.

Saturday Night/Sunday Morning got an ems call for a person in a car in the woods having a seizure. Ambulance, our captian and pd went out looking for him, but couldn't find him. about 15 mins into the search call came in for an mva about 5 mins away and we (the ambulance) were sent to that. Arrived on scene to find a car pinned between the edge of an embankment and a tree about 5 feet above the ground with an unresponsive passenger entrapped. Me and another member of the crew took the rest of the people from the car into the rig to work on them while the rest of the crew and FD worked on getting the passenger out. One of the passengers happened to mention that the guy in the car had had a seizure and he called 911, we asked him where they were when that happened, and the guys location matched up with the original call. our captain wasn't happy after looking for that call for half an hour when they weren't there. Luckily the unresponsive guy didn't wake up till they had him restrained, cause he flipped a sh*t. on the way to the hospital, the rig had to pull over and everyone including the driver had to hold this guy down while the medic gave him some tranquilizers. fun night.

I got another one for ya's:

02:30 (ish) EST, Fri, 27 Nov, 2009:

Fort Erie Pump 1 dispatched to an Unknown 9-1-1 investigation. However, the address was 119 Bertie Street. That's Fort Erie Fire Station 1. Now, not only did the dispatcher give the responding Firefighters the map grid, but she also gave them cross streets to their own hall

But, it gets better. You see, in Fort Erie, the Fire Department 'acknowledges' the call. In the past, we've had problems with tones not going off, pagers not activating, etc. So, now, if no one acknowledges the call within 5 minutes, Control attempts to contact the Station on the air. If no response after two tries; Control re-tones the call.

So, seeing as it's THEIR Fire Station that they're responding to, you'd think they'd be right on it, right? Wrong. They had to re-tone the call, because no one got the call.

Now, Fort Erie's protocol on Unknown 9-1-1 Calls is to stage 1 block out to wait for Regional Police to clear the location of any danger to personnel.

So, what is it the fire fighters do? Do they wait a block away before going to the station to get the truck? Nope. 10 or 12 guys go into the Station, put their gear on, and 6 of them jump in the Pump. The rest, they stay in the building in case they need the Rescue. So, Pump 1 responds from 119 Bertie St to 119 Bertie St, but, they have to follow protocol. So, they drive around they block, and stage at the corner, waiting for police to clear the building they just left.

I have doubts on whether or not the become a Fort Erie Fire Fighter anymore... hmmmmm.....

In the end, it was a phone malfunction. But, boy, did I ever get a kick out of the staging situation

Haha.. I'm glad you liked it

And yeah, thats why they had to do it. They got in sh*t as is, for entering the Station. The Chief's changing the CAD now, so that if that ever happens again, then the next due Station gets the run

Child stuck in a tree.... This should be interesting. I want to know why a kid is stuck in a tree at 1:15AM, I guess I'll find it in a few minutes.

EDIT: Cancelled before we even responded, child was assisted down by PD. I guess the tree wasn't as tall as the caller said it was.
