Two Marin County firefighters found themselves close to chaos when a deadly truck attack rocked New Orleans on New Year’s Day. John Bagala and Dan Peters, both members of Marin Professional Firefighters, were in the city to attend a union conference and experienced the aftermath of the tragedy that left at least 14 people dead and nearly 30 injured. “Everybody was here to celebrate the new year,” Bagala, president of Local 1755, said, as per Mercury News.
