  1. 2016 INCIDENTS

Braintree Tech Rescue Water Tank Lincoln St.12/15/2016

Two workers inspecting the inside of a million gallon water tank became trapped after an apparent malfuction with the air supply system. One person died as a result of this accident. It took a bout 16 hours to safely remove the body from the tank. Crews from the Norfolk Tech Rescue team assisted Braintree Fire at the scene. As the situation became a prolonged incident the Plymouth County Tech Rescue team was called in to assist. Because of the extreme cold and wind conditions crews were only allowed to operate outside form 15 minutes before being taken inside for rehab. At this time it is not what exactly happened to cause this accident. I was not allowed access by the PD due to possible crime scene. I do want to thank the Braintree PD officer for checking with his Supervisor for access.
