We are deeply saddened for the untimely passing of Firefighter Cameron Duvall, who made the ultimate sacrifice on July 18.

The members of Akron Fire Fighters Local 330 extend our deepest condolences to North Randall Fire Fighters Local 5365, the North Randall Fire Department, and especially Cameron’s family, friends, and brothers and sisters in the fire service. We hope they find strength in one another during this incredibly difficult time.

May Cameron’s dedication, courage, and service never be forgotten.

Due to the storm
Garfield Heights is experiencing a large amount of trees and wires down

Fire department is receiving a large amount of calls and we are securing the areas as best we can as the calls come in

Please do not attempt to remove any wires or downed trees, as they may still carry a live electrical current

If you see any people other than authorized personnel trying to remove these please call 911 to report it
