The swift and effective response by our first responders has once again demonstrated their dedication to keeping our community members safe, even in challenging conditions.
The emergency operation unfolded as the island’s size rapidly diminished, posing an imminent threat to those stranded. San Jose Fire Department crews sprang into action, executing a well-coordinated rescue to ensure the safety of both residents and their four-legged companions.
The successful rescue stands as a testament to the training, expertise, and commitment of San Jose’s first responders, who navigated the challenging conditions with precision and skill.
