Friday, February 8, 2013  At about 3:30pm the Haledon Fire Department was dispatched to a working car fire on Central Avenue.  The car fire was originally called in by a Department member who was driving down the road and notified dispatch headquarters of a car with a heavily involved engine compartment.  Engine 3 and Engine 2 quickly responded to the scene and were able to control and extinguish the flames which had engulfed the front end of the small sedan.  Great work by all members on scene.

As the tri-state area is being affected by the Winter storm Nemo the Haledon Fire Department would like to urge residents to stay safe and only venture out if completely necessary as hazardous roads and conditions can make it dangerous for yourself and others.  Reminder, if you notice a snow covered fire hydrant, help out by digging out the snow from around it.  Help us, help you.

Sunday, January 20, 2013  On Sunday afternoon the Haledon Fire Department responded to a reported resident trapped on a roof with possible injuries. Upon arrival the department encountered a resident who was injured while working on their roof and was unable to exit the roof from a ground ladder. Department members packaged the injured resident into a stokes basket on the roof and safely lowered them down to a waiting EMS unit.

The Haledon Fire Department would like to remind all residents to use caution and follow all safety practices while working off ladders or on a roof. Remember, any minor mishap can become a very dangerous situation while working on a ladder or roof.
