The tanker truck Robertson was driving rolled multiple times on a snowy Saturday morning. He was left partially hanging from the vehicle which appears nearly destroyed in images shared with this newspaper.

His injuries read like a laundry list of life-threatening ailments: a collapsed lung, broken shoulder, broken collar bone, broken vertebrae, internal bleeding and a deep gash on his head. A chest tube has also been inserted.

Doctors, who have informed Julien that her husband is expected to recover, are expected to make a decision on surgery concerning his badly injured back.

The Benton Volunteer Fire Department will use money from a recent award to buy an unusual, yet vital piece of rescue equipment.

The fire department received the 2015 Gary Garverick Memorial Award, which is funded by the Finger Lakes Health Foundation. It will help them buy a grain bin rescue tube.

Fire department officials said the apparatus is the only such equipment in Yates County.

Daniel Martin, EMS captain for the department, said many grain storage bins have been built in the county recently and more are planned. The rescue tube would free a person who became trapped in flowing grain.

According to Chief William Jackson, the burglary happened between Jan. 26 and 27 and the thief or thieves got inside the building by busting out glass in the bay doors.

Two chainsaws, four flashlights, two five-gallon gas cans with gas, four shovels and two cast iron antique small fire trucks were stolen.

The thief or thieves also rummaged through medical supplies but did not take anything.

he Waco Fire Department Honor Guard/Pipes & Drum nonprofit organization is thrilled with the vehicle, which began its history not far from where Lohmer’s 2003 adventure began.

Dillon, Mont., a town of about 4,000 residents, bought the truck new in 1956 from an American LaFrance dealership in New York. It still has Dillon’s name on it, along with the No. 3 engine number.

Former Dillon Volunteer Fire Chief Roy Cornell remembers the truck well. Cornell spent 32 years with the Dillon Volunteer Fire Department and was fire chief from 1988 until he retired in 2000. He now drives school buses in Dillon.
