CERT Activated for Central Avenue Fire

Hamden CERT was activated on June 28 for firefighter rehabilitation services, assisting the Hamden Fire Department at a structure fire on Central Avenue. The fire displaced a family of 3 as the fire that started with a solar panel extended into the attic. Due to high heat and humidity, CERT provided hydration & cooling towels to the firefighters and assisted the displaced individuals until the arrival of the Red Cross.
