Wesleyville Hose Company

Training never stops at the Wesleyville Fire Department. Last night, members worked on several important fireground skills including hydrant wrapping procedures, deployment and operation of the 1 1/2” hose line, and engine pumping operations.

With several newer members joining the department, drills like these are important in helping build knowledge, confidence, and teamwork on the fireground. Our department continues to work hard to strengthen our skills, improve as a team, and better serve the community through training, dedication, and continued membership growth.

It is with deep sadness that the members of the Wesleyville Hose Company extend our heartfelt condolences to the family, friends, and members of Fairfield Hose Company following the tragic passing of firefighter Tyler Storicks.

Tyler was a brother in the fire service whose dedication, courage, and commitment to serving others will not be forgotten. The loss of one of our own is felt deeply throughout the firefighting community.

Please keep Tyler’s loved ones, his brothers and sisters at Fairfield Hose Company, and all those affected by this tragedy in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Rest easy, brother. We’ll take it from here.

At 08:18 hours, Wesleyville Hose Company was dispatched to a structure fire in the 2800 block of East 30th Street after the incident was reported by Police Chief Buzanoski and Patrolman Maille.

Crews from multiple departments worked together to extinguish the fire, ventilate the structure, and complete overhaul operations.

Departments involved included Wesleyville Hose Company, Lawrence Park Volunteer Fire Department, Fairfield Hose Company, Belle Valley Fire Department, Brookside Fire Company, Erie Fire Department, Kuhl Hose Company, and Echo 2 and Echo 3.

Residents are asked to stay away from the scene as the cause of the fire remains under investigation.

Thank you to everyone involved for their hard work and professionalism throughout the incident.
