STONY BROOK, N.Y. (CBS New York) – A firefighter fundraiser will be held this week to help get life-saving equipment to first responders.
The event was organized by a man who lost his firefighter son after one of the deadliest fires in FDNY history, CBS2’s Crystal Bui reported Wednesday.
It’s a call to action from a father who wants to make fighting fires safer. His son is one of the firefighters who died following the massive 2005 Bronx fire, called “Black Sunday.”
