    Maine Firefighters Perform Technical Rescue at Crash Site

    Dec. 17, 2015
    Rangeley firefighters with assistance from neighboring communities, successfully rescued the driver of a van who lost control of his vehicle, went over a guardrail, land it precariously on a cliff with a 60-foot drop to water below.

    Great job Rangeley Fire, Phillips and Farmington Fire, Northstar EMS, Franklin County Sheriffs and 911, Franklin County Technical Rescue team working for over 3 hours to save the life of a crash victim who went over the embankment 50 ft down into the gorge at small falls on Rt 4. One of the most difficult technical rescues I have ever seen and worked. All hands working to save a life, great job everyone!!
