Venice Fire
Shortly after 3 p.m. Sunday, June 8, VFR units responded to the Historic Venice Train Depot at the Intracoastal Waterway for a medical call. A man who was sight-impaired was found on the rocks of the ICW embankment, where he had climbed down and gotten stuck.
Due to the steep incline and not wanting to cause the patient further harm, more units arrived on scene and started rope op procedures. This insured the safest possible care in getting the man up the steep, rocky incline to safety. He was then transported to SMH-Venice for treatment.
