 Important info: 

 Please remember that the incidents you read about below are more "newsworthy" than our everyday type of incident.  Local 1522 takes great pride in handling many of our responses without "fanfare".  We respond to over 6,000 calls for service per year with an average response time of approx. 3 minutes.  The calls we are most proud of are the heart attacks or the "small fires" that are kept under control by responding quickly, effectively, and efficiently. 

We would not be able to complete our mission without the support of the residents of the City of New London.  Thank you!

GROUP 3 RESPONDS TO UNUSUAL INCIDENT ON FERRY STREET

Updated On: Aug 23, 2010 (20:19:00)

An initial call for an injured boater turned into numerous people injured on a high speed ferry on 8/22 nights.  Group 3 responded to Ferry St. to meet an incoming ferry that encountered "high seas" during a storm.  A window on the vessle was broken due to the conditions and passengers were injured by falling glass.  One person suffered serious injuries and many others had minor injuries.  Waterford EMS was also requested to the scene due to the number of injuries.  NLFF's are seen in the PFD's, which are required when members are operating on NL's many piers, wharfs, docks, and other waterfront areas.  During this incident, mutual aid was required to respond to a fire in the laundry room of an 11 story high-rise at 202 Colman Street.
