Sprinkler Activation Evacuates the Store
By Chief of Department Joseph Lombardo
February 28, 2006
At 7:44 PM on February 28, 2006, E-198 and Tower Ladder 57 were dispatched to ShopRite at 747 Bedford Road for a Commercial Alarm. While enroute to the call 60 Control updated Car 2031 (Lombardo) that a water flow alarm was now being received. Upon arrival Car 2031 (Lombardo) and Car 2032 (Graniero) were advised of a sprinkler activation within ShopRite. BHFD assisted ShopRite staff with shutting down the water while also investigating the cause of the activation. One party was treated for a minor injury at the scene by Katonah-Bedford Hills Ambulance.
