Last night around 2300, Marlboro Police Communications were notified of a vehicle fire on Route 18 South and Texas Road. @marlboropolicedept arrived to find a fully involved vehicle fire. Shortly after, the Chief, along with the Assistant Chief, Engine 74, Engine 75, Tanker 96, Fire Police 99 arrived on scene and began extinguishing the blaze. Tanker 96 was utilized as a water supply and was later used to wash down the roadway from foam used. While extinguishing the blaze, motorists on the north bound 18 lanes came to a stop and a collision occurred. 3 firefighters and 2 firefighter/emts were sent over to begin patient care of 1 injured party, and to secure one vehicle that was totaled. @mfars2823 was requested to evaluate and transport the one injured party to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. There were no other injuries from either incident. This would be incident #4 & #5 that our VOLUNTEERS operated at. We remind all motorists to please keep your eyes on the road while operating a motor vehicle.

Members of the Robertsville Volunteer Fire Co, in observance of the 20th Anniversary of the 9/11 Attacks. Will be attending the 2021 Tunnel to Towers 5K Run & Walk – New York City, NY. We are looking to raise awareness and funds for the Tunnel to Towers foundation. Born from the tragedy of 9/11, the Tunnel to Towers Foundation carries forward a legacy of courage and heroism. Built upon the mantra, “While we have time, LET US DO GOOD,” the Foundation supports our nation’s fallen and catastrophically injured first responders, military heroes and their families. The story behind the Tunnel to Towers 5K Run & Walk – New York City, NY. Run. Walk. Honor. The Tunnel to Towers 5K Run & Walk in New York is held, each year, on the last Sunday of September. What began with 1,500 people in 2002 is now considered by many to be one of the top 5K runs in America. The event symbolizes Stephen Siller’s final footsteps from the foot of the Battery Tunnel to the Twin Towers and pays homage to the 343 FDNY firefighters, 71 law enforcement officers, and thousands of civilians who lost their lives on September 11, 2001. @Tunnel2Towers #tunnel2towers #neverforget #9/11 https://dogood.t2t.org/team/365879 https://dogood.t2t.org/team/365879

We send our thoughts and prayers to the Hillsborough Township Fire Department over the loss of Assistant Chief William Shaffer, along with William's Family. Companies 1, 2 and career members all turned out to 2124 Camplain Road at 1318 hours today for a working vehicle fire. As companies worked on the fire, Chief Shaffer was found unresponsive. Members immediately treated him and he was transported to RWJ Somerset Hospital where he passed away. Assistant Chief Shaffer had over 35 years of service with the Township (Co. 2, Station 37) and leaves his wife Marian and three children. Rest In Peace.

On September 11, 2001, Stephen Siller, who was assigned to Brooklyn’s Squad 1, had just finished his shift and was on his way to play golf with his brothers when he got word over his scanner of a plane hitting the North Tower of the World Trade Center. Upon hearing the news, Stephen called his wife Sally and asked her to tell his brothers he would catch up with them later. He returned to Squad 1 to get his gear.

Stephen drove his truck to the entrance of the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, but it had already been closed for security purposes. Determined to carry out his duty, he strapped 60 lbs. of gear to his back, and raced on foot through the tunnel to the Twin Towers, where he gave up his life while saving others.

We will be walking that same path he did on that fateful day.
