Creston Fire Department receives accolades

The Creston Fire Department is getting recognition for its rescue abilities in a national publication. Fire Chief Todd Jackson says the January issue of “Fire Rescue” magazine contains an article about the department’s efforts on September 26th last year to save a man who’d fallen into a partly-filled grain bin and was buried up to his neck.The employee of DeBruce Grain Company in Creston was rescued and he was able to go back to work the following week. Chief Jackson says “Most of those incidents like that don’t come out as favorable as that one.”
