Trooper Rescues Animals from Burning Barn

 

Here's an ‪#‎attaboy‬ for Trooper James McKay of Woodstown Station. 

Trooper McKay responded to a structure fire in Alloway Township on Friday, February 20. When he arrived at the location, he discovered a burning barn. 

As he approached, he heard animals inside screaming and yelping. After attempts to open windows to ventilate the barn, he broke through the door with the assistance of neighbors. Knowing that the animals were trapped inside, Trooper McKay entered the smoke-filled structure and was able successfully rescue them. 

Outstanding job Trooper McKay! Another job well done!

*It was determined that the fire was accidental.
