π Stranded driver? No problem for the crew of Engine 61!
Earlier today, after finishing a call for service, they came across a broken-down vehicle. The team replaced the lack of horsepower with some firefighter power and pushed the car down the road and into a parking lot.

My bipartisan amendment with @RepKevinMullin to support the National Urban Search & Rescue Response System was added to the FY25 Homeland Appropriations bill.
US&Rβs task forces, including 9 in the West led by @OCFireAuthority Chief Fennessy, are critical to @fema's disaster response.

π Our OCFA hand-crew lent a helping hand today in Trabuco Canyon! A resident with a blocked driveway due to the recent wind needed some assistance. The crew cleared the tree obstruction, ensuring the resident's access in and out. That's what community support is all about!
