Man Taken Away in Helicopter After Impalement

A man suffered serious injuries from an impalement and had to be taken away in a medical helicopter that landed at Patton Park on Monday afternoon.

A man had to be taken away in a medical helicopter after his arm was impaled by a pole on Monday afternoon. Hamilton Fire Chief Phil Stevens said the call was to a home on Moynihan Road where the pole “went up through his arm.” The person, who was not identified, was doing work on his own home, Stevens said, and it was not a contractor that was injured. He was taken by ambulance to Patton Park, where the medical helicopter landed. The man who was taken in the helicopter was the only person injured, Stevens said. Anytime a person suffers serious trauma a helicopter is called, Stevens said. In recent years, MedFlight has been called to the park for a painter who fell off a ladder and a person involved in a serious waterskiing accident, for …

The Hamilton Fire Department took part in the Cooking for a Cure event for the first time this year.

Each department enters three cooks to prepare a dish of their choice. While the Hamilton Fire Department did not leave with any awards in its first year, they did get a "special thank you" for a handmade birthday sheet cake they made for a woman with MD at the event.

The family is moving on with their lives; but it seems that you can't or won't. Can't you wait until the house is fully restored to take another picture? I am sure that is one that everyone in the community would like to see.   more ›

Helping Hands Reach Out to Family as They Search for Hamilton Housing

Donations are coming in to help the family whose house was badly damaged in a fire on Saturday night.

The Zegarowski family is looking for a home to rent in Hamilton as donations continue to come in to help the family whose fire was badly damaged in a fire on Saturday night. The three-alarm fire significantly damaged the family's home at 261 Cutler Road in Hamilton and left it uninhabitable. "Mandy is like my daughter," said Shirley Berry, who said she has helped other families after a house fire but it is more personal this time. "I have known her since she was a baby." Her daughter, Tracie, is the godmother of the Zegarowski's oldest son, Syracuse basketball star Michael Carter-Williams and Mandy Carter-Zegarowski, the mother of the family, is the godmother to Tracie's daughter Summer. Berry, a member of the Ipswich Board of Selectmen, …

Dozens of Firefighters Focused on Fire as Basketball Star Played Strong Defense

The cause of Saturday night's fire has been determined to be accidental.

As many as 50 firefighters battled a three-alarm fire Saturday night at the home of Michael Carter-Williams, only to find out later than the sophomore guard was helping the Syracuse Orange into the Sweet 16 of the March Madness tournament. In the end, the fire at 261 Cutler Road ended up generating one of the largest responses to a house fire in Hamilton in several years, according to Hamilton Fire Department Deputy Chief Kirby Brand. "It's been a while since we've had a three-alarm fire in Hamilton," Brand said. Nobody was injured in the fire. Brand said it was not until after the fire that he realized that Carter-Williams was on the court in a Round of 32 matchup with the University of California in San Diego while he was directing teams…
