Arcola Volunteer Fire Department

09/02/2026

🚑 In July 2026, fire and rescue personnel responded to the report of an adult male experiencing chest pain. Upon arrival, crews from Fire Station 9 (Brambleton) and the Arcola Volunteer Fire Department met with the patient, who reported having chest tightness earlier in the day that resolved on its own and returned later that evening. Crews evaluated the patient and transported him to an area hospital, where it was determined he was having a heart attack. After receiving further medical care and recovering, the patient and his family came and met with the providers who helped him that day. This was a special moment, as it is not often that our first responders get to meet those who they are able to help!
