Thank you to Northern Lakes Fire District for a job well done!

Thanks to the Northern Lakes Fire Protection District Fire Chief Dean Marcus and Deputy Chief Ralph Kramer who assisted the Spokane Fire Department during a recent motor vehicle collision on March 6, 2009 at 3:30pm near Green and Market.

The Northern Lake members were already on-scene of the incident and were treating an injured woman with an obvious fractured femur and multiple other traumatic injuries.  Engine 7 contacted me after the incident and felt that their performance was outstanding and the company was very grateful for their help.

Without the selfless performance of both off-duty Chief Officers and their quick actions prior to our arrival, the patient most likely would have suffered an untoward outcome—and for this reason we are extremely thankful.

Thanks Northern Lakes! 

Sincerely,

Brian Schaeffer
Assistant Fire Chief
