Unless Something Goes Wrong Screening

(FALL RIVER, MA – September 30, 2026)- In Celebration of Imagine A Day without Water, the City of Fall River Community Utilities and the Massachusetts Water Environment Association invite the
community to a special screening of Unless Something Goes Wrong on Wednesday, October 14th, 2026 at Morton Middle School.

What really happens after the water goes down the drain? The film takes viewers behind the scenes to explore what happens to wastewater after it leaves our homes, businesses, and communities. It highlights the essential work of wastewater professionals, and the critical role water infrastructure plays in protecting public health and the environment.

Imagine a day without clean, reliable water and consider everything that happens behind the scenes to make sure our communities have water and wastewater services they depend on every day.
Join us as we recognize the importance of our water resources, the people who protect them, and the infrastructure that keeps our communities running.

Doors open at 5:30 pm. Screening takes place from 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

*Attendees should park in the Hood Street parking lot at 115 Hood St. Fall River, MA and proceed to

Fall River Fire Department Battles Third-Alarm Fire at the Corner of South Main and
Rodman Streets Fall River, MA, September 24, 2026

On September 23, 2026, at approximately 10:07 PM, the Fall River Fire Department
was dispatched to a building fire at 26 Rodman Street.

Firefighters arrived to find heavy fire showing at the rear of 318 South Main Street, a
three-story building. Given the size and intensity of the fire, it was raised to a third
alarm at 10:37 PM , and at one point, every piece of fire apparatus in the city was
committed to the scene. At approximately 1:39 AM the fire was under control. First
due crews were still on scene until approximately 12:30 PM looking for hidden fire. As
of 3:30 PM, a couple crews were still on scene chasing hot spots and preventing
rekindle awaiting cranes to tear down the building.

In total, three buildings were involved in the fire: 308 South Main Street, 298 South
Main Street, and 26 Rodman Street. The fire gutted the building at 308 South Main
Street and spread to the upper floors of the two adjacent buildings, burning through
their roofs. Sections of the exterior wall at the rear of both South Main Street buildings
also collapsed.

One firefighter sustained a minor injury during the incident and was not transported
for treatment.

One resident of the Rodman Street building was displaced as a result of the fire.
Fall River Police, Fall River EMS, and Special Services also responded to assist.
The Fall River Fire Department thanks the Westport, Tiverton, Swansea, and Freetown
Fire Departments for their mutual aid, which helped cover Fall River fire stations during
the incident.

The Fall River Fire Department also recognizes its Fire Alarm dispatchers, who received
the initial call and coordinated the department’s response throughout the incident.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation
