On Tuesday, March 4th, the Lawrence County Fire Rescue Volunteers faced a demanding day, responding to a total of 15 emergency calls. Among these incidents were a structure fire, a critical situation involving an individual not breathing, a motor vehicle accident, and several brush fires fueled by strong winds. The volume of high-priority calls stretched the available resources to their limits, prompting a coordinated response from all personnel.
In light of the overwhelming number of emergencies, all firefighters from each LCFR station were instructed to report to their respective locations to ensure adequate coverage. Additionally, both the Lawrenceburg Fire Department and the Loretto Fire Department were placed on standby, as the available manpower was insufficient to handle the ongoing calls for assistance. The stations expressed their gratitude for the unwavering support from neighboring counties, which has been invaluable during such challenging times.
