At approximately 6:20 p.m. Tuesday, FDNY members assigned to the Robotics Unit and EMS rescued two swimmers in distress off Rockaway Beach at Beach 85th Street just 20 minutes after lifeguards had gone off duty. While patrolling the shoreline with a drone, Firefighter Michael Stothers spotted the swimmers struggling in the water and, within minutes, successfully deployed a Restube flotation device from the drone. The flotation device began to inflate as soon as it hit the water and helped both swimmers remain afloat until rescuers arrived. EMT Michael Ormiston, of Station 47, entered the water with a rescue torpedo and made contact with one victim, while Firefighter Patrick O'Leary assisted in bringing the individual safely to shore. An off-duty lifeguard assisted with the rescue of the second swimmer. Both patients were transported to an area hospital in stable condition. ⚠️ As more New Yorkers head to the beach this summer, the FDNY reminds residents to swim only when lifeguards are on duty, follow the posted safety signs and to stay alert to changing water conditions.

A leader. A rescuer. A firefighter's firefighter. After 41 years of service to New York City, Rescue 3 Lt. Mickey Conboy worked his final tour with the FDNY on May 15. A native of the Bronx with family ties to public service, Lt. Conboy responded to some of the most challenging moments in FDNY history. He built a career defined by courage, mentorship and an unshakable sense of duty.

ARRESTED FOR ARSON🚨 FDNY Fire Marshals have arrested 21-year-old Dominick Sacchetti in connection with a fire at a Staten Island ShopRite on November 26th. Sacchetti was an employee of the supermarket. After reviewing surveillance footage, Fire Marshals say Sacchetti started the fire on a product shelf containing paper goods. The fire spread quickly causing an expected $100,000 in damages. At the time of the fire, the store was packed with shoppers preparing for the Thanksgiving holiday. A fast-acting customer helped to briefly knock down the fire using a fire extinguisher. FDNY units arrived promptly and fully extinguished the fire. Sacchetti has been charged with arson, reckless endangerment, criminal mischief and intent to damage property.

“We try to honor them every single day, not just on 9/11. We try to live up to the expectation that they set. They had airplanes hanging out of buildings, and nobody turned around and walked away,” said Captain Thomas Riches of the Rescue Battalion. Riches joined the department in 2006, following the path of his father, retired Deputy Chief James Riches, and three brothers, including Firefighter Jimmy Riches, who made the Supreme Sacrifice on September 11, 2001, just a day shy of his 30th birthday.
