KS FIREFIGHTER CRITICAL, FDNY EMS VS EMS CRASH, FDNY Funeral (The Secret List)

         No Comments

All,

A Firefighter suffered critical injuries while operating at a working fire at a medical office in Linn County, Kansas, south of Kansas City. Linn County Rural District 1 Firefighter Josh Haynes, 35, was working at that fire at a Chiropractor’s office and had to be pulled from the building by other Firefighters around 2300 hours last night. Reports are that he was one of the first members inside. FF Haynes was airlifted from Pleasanton, about 70 miles north to a hospital in the Kansas City area for emergency treatment and is listed in critical condition.

The Kansas State Fire Marshal and the United States Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are on scene and while there is no sign of foul play involved with this fire, their team will be working to narrow down the cause of that fire. KTIYP’s.

 
FDNY AMBULANCE VS AMBULANCE CRASH
4 FDNY EMT’s were hurt Monday night after a pair of FDNY ambulance drivers crashed into each other in Park Slope, sending one vehicle careening into the side of a nearby bank.
The ambulances collided about 2230 hours near the corner of Union Street and Seventh Avenue, causing one driver to crash into the side of a Bank of America at the intersection. The fire department didn’t further specify what caused the crash, saying it is under investigation but odds are one of them had a red traffic light. 
FDNY OFF DUTY DEATH FUNERAL
A wake and funeral for a decorated FDNY Firefighter from Long Beach who died in a vacation accident in North Carolina will be held later this week.

Casey Skudin’s wake will be held at Towers Funeral Home in Oceanside on Thursday from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. An FDNY ceremony will be conducted at Towers on Friday from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., followed by an FDNY procession to All Souls Crematory in East Elmhurst, where a private service will continue at 2:30 p.m.

Skudin’s family, friends and FDNY colleagues will also honor the avid outdoorsman and surfer at 9 a.m. Sunday with a “paddle-out” off Lido Beach. A paddle-out is a floating memorial consisting of surfers, paddle boarders, kayakers and others who paddle out from the shore to offer words of remembrance about the deceased Casey.

Take Care. Be careful. Pass it On.
