Knicks’ coach saw car fire rescue
Amidst all the flooding this morning, emergency responders also had to deal with a car fire on the Hutchinson Parkway. Mike Dougherty, our Knicks writer, got this first-hand report from Knicks coach Isiah Thomas:
Thomas, who lives in Purchase, was driving his daughter, Lauren, to school this morning when he got stopped right behind the car fire.
“I saw the firemen do an unbelievable job,” Thomas said. “There was this car that was on fire, they came up the other side, jumped out, ran across the highway, stopped the traffic. That was the first time I’ve ever seen it that close up, live, where they perform and do their thing. They were extremely impressive. No one got hurt. They got everyone out of the car. They were good.”
