Earlier this evening just before 6:00pm, Franklin D1 was dispatched to the area of Amwell Rd and Market St in East Millstone for a MVC with fluids on the ground. Deputy 28 arrived established command and advised Somerset County Communications that both drivers had sustained injuries from the crash. Squad 28 and Hazmat 26 Elizabeth Avenue VFC arrived to mitigate the fluid spills from the vehicles and secure power to the batteries. Station 44 Middlebush Volunteer Fire Dept fire police assisted with traffic control as it was still rush hour. Our fire police responded and blocked the road by our Firehouse while Chief 28 blocked traffic in Millstone Borough. We stood by while the patients were transferred to Ems and the vehicles were removed from the roadway. Companies were clear around 7:30 pm.
As a friendly reminder if an emergency vehicle is blocking the road and directing you a different way, it is for your safety and the safety of Emergency personal working on scene. Please do not drive around these emergency vehicles. Due to drivers not paying attention a secondary accident happened in Millstone Borough, however Fire and Ems were not needed. #millstonevalley #MVC #drivesafely

This Fire Co. is AMAZING! In addition to protecting people pay attention to the fact that they even put measures in place to prevent pollutants from getting in the storm drain. Impressive!
aw man that’s a nice wrangler
Last night our members participated in the Somerville Holiday Light Parade! Members worked hard since 10:30 in the morning to get all the trucks ready! Another fun year hosted by Somerville Volunteer Fire Department, We won best decorated Brush Truck and a special judges award for our decorated Fan Trailer! There was plenty of tough competition from all surrounding companies this year and it drives us to keep stepping our game up! Our Santa Inflatable will have more energy next year as this year he got tired and kept falling over!🤣 Nevertheless Great work to all who helped set up and clean up at the end of the night! #millstonevalley #somervilleholidaylightparade #2024

Great job!!
Last night before the Tree Lighting Ceremony, we recieved a call at our Firehouse from someone stating there was smoke coming from a neighbors house in Millstone Borough. Deputy 28 and Squad with a crew of 6 responded and once arriving on scene quickly determined that a fireplace was lit without the flue being opened. The wood and ashes were watered down outside and the house was naturally ventilated. As a reminder while it may seem faster to call your local fire department, Always call 911 and do your very best to get an address for the emergency or as close as you can to it. We are 100% volunteer and not always at the firehouse. Luckily it was an honest mistake. Thank you to our ladies auxiliary member Josselin for getting a video of Squad 28 responding! #millstonevalley

Any significance of the kangaroo inflatable? Asking as a homesick Australian that was shocked and delighted to drive past!

Last night we were requested for our drones to this fire to assist the crews on the ground. We put 2 drones in service and were able to help point out hot spots and locate where pockets of fire remained. Our drones have thermal capabilities which is an asset in many ways with this just being one of them. We are always happy to assist surrounding companies any way we can. All crews on the ground did an outstanding job despite the terrain and conditions. We also had a member stay back with the brush truck and rangers incase they were also needed. Great work by all! #millstonevalley #forestfire #droneresponse
