The Dauphin Fire Department observed a very slight decrease in their Incident Report tally for 2024.
232 calls were responded to, 4 fewer than in 2023 and 2022, but still seeing a lot of similar issues like false alarms, vehicle incidents, and kitchen fires.

The largest sections; False Alarms and Motor Vehicle Collisions, made up 86 and 45 calls respectively.
Fire Chief Cam Abrey notes that while structure and kitchen fires may be smaller portions, they can represent a serious threat to the scale of damage.
Abrey reminds everyone to have smoke alarms on every level of the homes and check them every month.
The Dauphin Fire Department committed over 4500 hours to all of these responses, and another 2400 hours in training, a testament of the hard-working people who keep Dauphin safe.
