Thoughts and prayers with the families and the rest of the Jersey City PD. This is very tragic news to hear...especially on Christmas. From all of us here at WCPD...God Bless.

John Dillon won the election on Tues Night. John Dillon 308 votes Jay Schwartz 207 votes

I heard a rumor floating around that the Peekskill PD will be using the old rescue as a multi-purpose vehicle...

Howie is also heavily involved with the muster in Milford,Ct every September. He travels up from Fl to help out every year.

I totally have to agree with the above. Good job Seth! This site would not be today if it wasn't for you.

I'm sure Andy's Northern Dept. would love to hear about this........

Rest in Peace Jimmy Boy. Your heroism will continue on with the rest of us.

Just a reminder...its tomorrow!!!!! Eisenhower Park on Rt 121 in Milford off U.S. Route 1, in area of I-95. Mohegan is departing tonight....

Preliminary results from Mohegan's Fill The Boot Drive shows that the Firefighters raised over $10,000.00 in just 3 hours of standing at Rt 6/Lexington Ave.

Con Edison sent 30 employees with a dozen vehicles to the South 3 days ago. NYPD ESU has also sent its Urban Search and Rescue Team as well.

A New Orleans Police Officer was shot in the head by a looter yesterday as the officer tried to stop the looting. Apparently they are looting gun stores and using guns as weapons to fend for themselves as they loot other stores and mug innocent victims! Although the cop will survive....What the F*ck??? The mayor had to take 1,200 cops from Rescue missions and put them in the city streets to prevent looting. Remember585...coinsidence is...NYPD ESU has already left with its Urban Search & Rescue Team to assist. Con Ed also sent a convoy of a dozen trucks and 30 guys down yesterday morning.

On behalf of Mohegan FD, our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Arena Family and especially Jimmy Boy!!!

Yes...Milford muster is Sept 10th

Jimmy' Bagels on Rt 202 next to Grandma's Restaurant and Pie Shop in Yorktown have great bagels with a large assortment. They also have a wide variety of pastries/cakes as well.
