🚨 BACK-TO-BACK WORKING FIRES IN THE RIVERTOWNS 🚨

It was a busy day today for fire departments throughout the Rivertowns, with our members responding to two separate working fires alongside our mutual aid partners.

At approximately 5:00 AM, the Irvington Fire Department, along with Dobbs Ferry Tower Ladder 23 and Tarrytown Fire Department Engine 80, were dispatched for a reported structure fire on Mountain Road.

Upon arrival, Irvington Command transmitted a 10-75 Working Fire, bringing additional mutual aid resources to the scene. Our members operated alongside firefighters from surrounding departments for approximately five hours before being released.

Then, at approximately 1:30 PM, the Hastings-on-Hudson Fire Department, along with Dobbs Ferry Tower Ladder 23, were dispatched to a business on Warburton Avenue for another reported structure fire.

Hastings Command confirmed a working fire, bringing Dobbs Ferry Engine 48 and additional mutual-aid companies to the scene. Our members operated for just under two hours before being released.

We are proud to assist our mutual aid partners and grateful for the teamwork displayed by everyone who responded today.

🚒 MUTUAL AID RESPONSE TO OSSINING 🚒

Last night, shortly after 8:00 PM, the Dobbs Ferry Fire Department was dispatched to relocate an engine to Ossining and provide coverage for their district while Ossining firefighters operated at a 4th Alarm structure fire.

Shortly after being dispatched, Engine 47 and 2091 were redirected to the scene to assist the companies operating at the fire and provide relief to crews.

Our members assisted with opening up the side of the building and extinguishing hot spots as crews worked to bring the incident under control.

Members operated on scene for approximately 5 hours before being released and returning to Dobbs Ferry.

But the night wasn’t over. Shortly after returning to town, our members answered three additional calls in Dobbs Ferry overnight. 🚨

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Elmsford Fire Department, as well as the family and friends of Ex- Chief Steve Woehrle during this difficult time.

We ask for your prayers for our EFD Ex-Chief Steve Woehrle, who has passed away. Chief Woehrle most recently served as Chief of the Piseco NY Fire Department.

We are deeply grateful for his unwavering commitment, leadership and service to both departments. Chief Woehrle’s courage, dedication and selfless service will always be remembered. Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Gayle, daughters, Lisa & Katelyn, and their entire family during this incredibly difficult time.
