We had an incident transpire at our drill tonight which resulted in the injury of multiple firefighters. A malfunction of the deck gun on Rescue 34 sent 2 firefighters falling to the ground and injuring another along the way. A forth firefighter was also injured when the deck gun hit him. Three of these individuals were transported by Chal-Brit Regional EMS to Doylestown Hospital, while one self transported.
All of these individuals have been checked out at Doylestown Hospital and released as of 12:30 this morning. With the exception of one who broke his wrist, everyone else went home with scrapes, bruises and sores. Luckily, this wasn't as bad as it could be.
