COVENTRY, R.I. (WJAR) — When a blizzard buried neighborhoods across Rhode Island, first responders in Coventry had to think outside the box to reach a man in need of medical help.
Crews from Central Coventry Fire responded just after daylight to a well-being check on an elderly male who lives on Flat River Road, directly across from Station 7. Fire Chief Kevin Cady said the man’s home sits about a third of a mile from the road – at the end of a long, unplowed driveway.
