2015 busiest year for Richland Fire Department

2015 was the busiest year to date for the Richland Fire Department. They went on over 6,300 calls which is up more than 9 percent from 2014. Battalion Chief James Hempstead said fires were not even the cause for most of the calls they went on. "The majority of that call volume historically has come from the medical demands of the community," said Hempstead.
