The Elk Run Volunteer Fire Company acquired a 2023 Polaris ATV that is equipped with an enclosed cab, air conditioning, heat, and a radio, making it suitable for various purposes such as brush fires and search and rescue operations.
The Punxsutawney Spirit reports, the Borough Police Department helped by providing lights and a siren for the ATV, which will also be used for their K-9 unit. It will be stored in a water-rescue trailer and can transport all the necessary equipment.
This addition, according to the Spirit, was prompted by a previous incident where a regular vehicle couldn’t access the location.
