Three Saint John Firefighters have received special recognition for rescuing an unconscious man from a burning building earlier this year.
At the annual conference of the NB Association of Fire Chiefs held in Fredericton on Saturday, Captain Karl Conrad and Senior Firefighters Scott Goguen and Trevor Price were given the Certificate of Courage.
in a release, it says despite the danger and unpredictable nature of the situation they encountered. these three firefighters acted quickly to rescue the man caught in a life-threatening situation.
Saint John Police Chief Kevin Clifford stated: “Although our firefighters are prepared and respond without hesitation to unpredictable situations on a regular basis, the life-saving call of duty can take a toll and be very difficult for everyone involved.”
The man has since made a full recovery from his injuries.
