Dunsmoor Farms Fire - January 2-3, 2016
Saturday evening at approximately 8pm the Oswego Town FD volunteers where dispatched to a reported explosion and fire at the Dunsmoor Farms facility on St Rt 104. First arriving units found a working fire in an 18 wheeler truck parked at the loading dock of the facility. An agressive attack was initiated but unfortunately the fire made its way into the main facility and there was no stopping it from there. 20 hours later all units were back in service. 20 different fire department from 3 counties manning 39 pieces of apparatus provided assistance throughout the event. The entire warehouse facility was a total loss, 2 nearby homes were able to be saved. THANK YOU goes to everyone involved with the firefighting operations.
