Casino Rural Fire Brigade has had a busy weekend – and it’s not over yet.
On Friday, November 24, Casino RFS attended a structure on fire, likely caused by an electrical issue, at 10pm at Collins Creek, Kyogle.
When Kyogle RFS and Kyogle Fire and Rescue arrived, the Casino crew returned to the station.
On Saturday, November 25 at 1am Casino RFS was called to an incident where a van had collided with a calf at Leeville.
The driver was taken by ambulance to hospital for observation. Unfortunately, the calf didn’t survive.
Crews stayed on the scene until the van was removed and the road could be cleaned before returning to the station.
At 4am, the Casino crew assisted at the fire burning behind the meatworks. Read about that here.
On Saturday at 9am, training was interrupted when the crew was called to a car crash on the Bruxner Highway, west of Casino.
A car had gone through a fence and was left abandoned on the roadway.
Police arrived and found the car had been stolen from out of the area.
Crews stayed on the scene until the car was removed and the road was cleaned.
What would we do without these volunteers? They do so much and are always looking for new members. Consider joining – find out more here.
