Fire

Youngstown Fire Department's Engine 7, along with members of the Street Dept and YPD Community Police Unit, were recently at Harding Elementary for what was detailed as "Big Truck Day".

The various departments were there for Harding's field day to show Engine 7, a Police vehicle, and a Street Department dump truck and street sweeper.

Thanks to a distribution from the City’s American Rescue Plan funds, 50 new defibrillators – medical devices that can rescue victims of sudden cardiac arrest – are being distributed throughout city departments.

City officials are taking a proactive approach in providing the machines in case any of the hundreds of individuals who visit City buildings each month ever suffers a dangerous heart malfunction.
