| This afternoon at approximately 3:50pm the Mahopac Falls VFD was dispatched to a reported brush fire in the area of Austin Road.
Upon arrival, crews found an active brush fire and immediately began suppression efforts. Due to the location and need for additional water supply, mutual aid was requested. Mahopac Fire Department and Somers Fire Department responded to assist, including tanker support.
Firefighters worked quickly to contain the fire and prevent extension to nearby properties. The scene was placed under control after coordinated operations between all responding departments.
We thank Mahopac and Somers for their mutual aid and continued partnership. |
