Assuming the guy has insurance, I hope they refuse to pay based on his being parked at the hydrant.

Per the article, the victim was a guy in his 50s.

CBS reporting 3 people killed in the fire, 2 in their 50s and one in their 90s. https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/bayside-queens-fire-3-people-dead/

Is there a website where I can listen to this frequency? I don't see it on Broadcastify.

Report fire from the wing of a plane

Wow! That must have been fun! He retired from 252 in 1978, shortly after being hurt in a 3 alarm fire. I was listening to the fire, but didn't know he was on duty at the time, or what company the reported injured member was from.
