Training day for the Steubenville Fire Department

Steubenville firefighters practiced using the Jaws of Life to remove a car roof Tuesday morning. Several vehicles were donated to the fire department for the training exercise by Choice Towing. Firefighter Dave Coladonato said the department purchased new equipment with funding from a grant, and the firefighters were updating their skills. Firefighter John Losey practiced his skills with the Jaws of Life equipment by removing a vehicle roof, while assistant Fire Chief Frank DeLeonardis watched. During Tuesday’s training session the firefighters were called to an oven fire at the KFC restaurant on Sunset Boulevard. The fire was extinguished within minutes of the firefighters’ arrival. — Dave Gossett
