Public Safety Response after East Rochester Fireman’s Carnival
EAST ROCHESTER, N.Y. – “Public Safety has been and continues to be the number one priority for all residents, businesses and visitors to the Town/Village of East Rochester, said Mayor John R. Alfieri”.
This past Saturday evening visitors to the East Rochester Fire Department Carnival disrupted the family fun event that is brought to the community annually for all to enjoy. This is the main fundraiser for a 100% volunteer Fire Department.
The East Rochester Police Department responded in a prepared and professional manner, supported by the Monroe County Sherriff’s Office, New York State Police, Fairport Police Department and multiple private security companies. All of our pre-planning measures that were put in place unfortunately needed to be used. We thank all those who “Protect and Serve” with keeping our community safe. We will meet soon with appropriate stake holders to evaluate the future of the event as no decision has been made at this time.
