I hope the injured worker has a speedy recovery. Hopefully all is rebuilt soon and returns back too normal operations.

They were working in the boiler room when something went wrong and they had a gas feed fire. The DFFD did a great job making a great stop with no damage to any rigs

Sounds like a good job by all involved.

Did the PD dispatcher have to evacuate the building ? Can another PD answer the phones and radio for DFPD? just asking... Because this emergency situation does occur from time to time and it happened to me.

Dobbs Ferry PD dispatched the fire then evacuated the building all 911 and regular calls were turned over to a surrounding department.

The damage to the building was contained to the boiler room. The boiler rooms sprinkler system activated which helped contain the fire until the gas supply was turned off. The hot water system and two boilers were damaged with water damage to other electrical equipment in the room. The equipment was down in a pit which helped contain the fire spread.

This fire highlighted the importance of smoke detectors and sprinklers throughout the building. The smoke detectors went off almost immediately alerting occupants throughout the Village Hall and the sprinklers kept the fire contained to the room of origin.
