The ambulance was transporting 48-year-old Larry Marshall Jr. home from dialysis treatment when police say the driver apparently lost control of the ambulance around 3:45 p.m. Saturday and slammed into a building at 28th Avenue and Washington Boulevard. Witnesses told police there were no other vehicles involved in the crash. Marshall was pronounced dead shortly after the crash. His mother, Minnie Marshall, said he had no children but was engaged to be married. The 51-year-old driver was killed instantly. Bellwood authorities said an ambulance attendant who was critically injured died Sunday.

Boston Mayor Martin J. Walsh announced Friday that overtime funds will pay for a second ambulance in the neighborhood for the remainder of the fiscal year. As part of the budget for fiscal year 2019, the mayor will earmark funds to permanently dedicate an ambulance in East Boston through a deal with the Massachusetts Port Authority, according to a statement from the mayor’s office.

City officials broke ground on the $10-million project in March last year. One of the first actions was demolishing the original 9,500-square-foot station on the site — commonly referred to as Fire Station No. 1.

The new station will have a large fire apparatus bay and include 10 firefighter dorm rooms, five restrooms, a kitchen and dining room, a laundry room, training rooms and office space.

The new facility also will include efficiency features such as solar panels that will provide energy to heat water. Windows and tubular skylights will illuminate the facility with natural light.

The newer 59-foot long vehicle has a 70-gallon foam system, which can be used for vehicle fires, something the older one didn’t have.

The truck also has a heavier weighted ladder at 500 pounds, meaning the 100-foot-long ladder can hold more weight distributed evenly. The old fire truck is 58 feet long with a 110-foot ladder weighing 250 pounds.

The equipment on the older fire truck will be placed on the new truck. Both can seat nine firefighters. Additional modifications could be done to the newer ladder truck.

Héctor Chaves, director of the Bomberos, said that they attend these incidents in the company of police because it is not the first time that the vandals have stoned the units.

But, on Saturday night, they had 16 calls, five of them in Parrita, three in Alajuela, seven in Heredia and one in San Jose. During one of the calls, the crowd started stoning the fire trucks when the firemen tried to put out the flames.
