Connecticut Firefighter Died After Vehicle Rolled Over, Report Finds

BERLIN, Conn.—A firefighter helping to battle a brush fire in Connecticut was killed after a utility vehicle operating on a steep, rocky incline rolled over onto him, according to a preliminary police report.

Authorities said Tuesday the three other firefighters injured in Monday’s accident suffered minor bumps and bruises and were expected to be released from the hospital. The majority of the crews that worked Monday at the 125-acre blaze on Lamentation Mountain, which is located 15 miles south of Hartford, did not return to the scene Tuesday.

“So obviously, the firefighter involved was an area local firefighter, one of our mutual aid responders,” said Berlin Fire Department Lt. John Massirio. “We’ve released them for the day to give them time to breathe and ground themselves. We have stress debriefing teams available to them and resources.”
