This could happen to any of us.
It is with deep regret that we advise you that a Firefighter with the Oregon Hill Volunteer Fire Department was killed in a rollover crash early this morning while responding to a run. Oregon Hill VFD is located in Rockingham County, North Carolina. We will have more details posted later but initial reports are that he was in his POV and was ejected.
ALSO-While not a Firefighter-this could absolutely happen to any of us. A Maryland Transportation Authority Police Officer is dead following a hit & run this morning in Baltimore. Corporal Courtney Brooks was struck while setting out flares to control traffic on Interstate 95 near the Interstate 395 interchange. Cpl. Brooks was taken to Baltimore Shock Trauma, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. For more information with specific details and guidelines on the dangers of operating on roads, go to: www.ResponderSafety.com
Our deepest sympathies to all those affected by these losses.
Take Care-BE CAREFUL.
