From the Fair Haven Fire Department …
Starting yesterday at 2 PM and ending at 4:30 this morning the fire department and first aid squad responded to at least 13 incidents:
11 Wires Down or Carbon Monoxide Alarm Calls
2 EMS Calls
And as that storm rolled in, squad members were also practicing splinting femur fractures at their monthly drill.
The storm that ripped through Fair Haven Thursday night left downed wires and trees and some panic over a lack of 911 response.
After residents took to social media out of a sense of exasperation over where to turn, the borough’s Mayor Josh Halpern issued a statement citing that, among other things, residents should forego an apparently non-functioning 911 and go back to calling the original police station line at 732-747-0992 and pressing 0 for dispatch to report downed wires and other related emergencies.
More than 1.300 homes lost power and transformers were blown. The mayor said that with emergency services and JCP&L dispatched, work had begun as of 10 p.m. to stave off dangerous situations first and then begin restoration of electricity.
Here’s the official advisory …
