Tonight
the Connelly Family from 811 Crozier Ave Stop by the National Park Fire
Department to show their support for the efforts of the men and women from the
National Park Fire Department and Westville Fire Department during the events
of 03/04/2012. The Connelly Family called 911 when they noticed a power issue
and smoke in their basement. Fire crews arrived to find a smoldering fire in
the attic. Crews kept the fire and water damage to a minimum. It's nice to hear
from families from time to time, some residents misunderstood the damage
caused by the fire department.
