Duckling Rescue Penn Township

 
May 17, 2024
 

West Grove first responders helped rescue some ducklings from a storm drain in Penn Township today.

A call to the 911 Center requested assistance from a game warden. The 911 Center called the fire house in West Grove and a crew went out to Federal Way around 3:15 pm. Firefighters removed the grates and climbed into the storm drain boxes, working side by side with some community members.

This is a duck rescue story with a good outcome -- all just another day at the West Grove Fire Company.
