The State Patrol is investigating a 3-car crash involving a medic aid unit in Graham Saturday morning. Graham Fire and Rescue says the unit was headed to a large house fire when the medic truck was hit head-on Meridian Avenue East. Troopers said a pick-up truck rear-ended a car. The impact caused the car to cross over into on-coming traffic and slam into the medic unit.

In 1891, volunteer firefighters from the Mount Vernon Fire Department would respond to fires with a steam-powered pump truck and a hose cart capable of carrying an 800-foot hose — long enough to stretch from one end of town to the other. Things have changed a bit since then. The department has grown to three stations, 35 full-time firefighters, four engines, a ladder truck, an ambulance and a rescue vehicle, and is celebrating its 125th anniversary with new badges that honor its history.
