Lawrence County Fire Rescue Handles Multiple Emergencies While Conducting Training

Lawrence County Fire Rescue crews stayed busy Tuesday afternoon while simultaneously conducting training and responding to multiple emergency calls across the county.

According to a social media post from the department, the 64-hour portion of its recruit class was underway at the Jason Dickey Memorial Training Center.

During a roughly three-and-a-half-hour span, crews responded to a cardiac arrest, a brush fire, and a motor vehicle crash that required extrication, with personnel establishing a landing zone for a medical helicopter as part of that response.
