Following several fatal house fires in surrounding communities the Grandville Fire Department in conjunction with area business and media outlets distributed over 75 free smoke detectors to residents in need.  We regret that we no longer have free smoke detectors available.  If your home is in need of a smoke detector, they can be purchased for under $10 at most home improvement and hardware centers.

Lieutenant Lynnae White and Firefighter/EMT Kevin McNutt responded to a report of a woman down at a local restaurant.  Lieutenant White was on the scene within 4 minutes of the initial call for help and found the victim in cardiac arrest.  Our Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) was applied and shocks were delivered which restored a normal heart rhythm.  At last report, the victim was preparing to be discharged from the hospital with no significant problems from this event.
