This weekend members of Rescue 1’s dive team went to upstate New York learn how to safely dive under a frozen lake. Diving under the ice is an extremely hazardous task that requires specialized equipment and training that not all divers and dive teams are equipped for. This training allows our dive team to respond to emergencies, evidence recoveries, and other calls for service on the frozen lakes in our area.
Yesterday just before 5am Mahwah Fire and many additional firefighters from the surrounding area responded to Franklin Turnpike for a large fire inside of a commercial building. The first arriving firefighters found the fire had extended through the second floor and roof. Firefighters were able to extinguish the blaze and ensured that it had not spread to the neighboring businesses.
