The Cardinal Joint Fire District is temporarily closing one of its fire stations in Canfield Township for a couple of days after a firefighter came down with flu-like symptoms, reports WKBN 27.
Firefighters who normally work at the station, as well as one engine and an ambulance, have been reassigned to the department’s other two stations.
Chief Don Hutchison said the station could be closed for a couple of days. He said the department has seen an increasing number of calls involving respiratory illness, now handling two or three a day on average.
