St. Helena Fire District Four not operational after insurance policy runs out
ST. HELENA PARISH – On Tuesday, signs went up at all three St. Helena Parish Fire District Four stations, letting people know the department was no longer taking calls for service. Fire officials said the department actually stopped taking calls on Oct. 23 when the insurance policy ran out.
“Seeing these signs, it makes me sick to my stomach. Not being able to… hearing the tone go off and hearing them having to page another district… is nauseating,” St. Helena Fire District Four Chief Bradley Graves said.
Graves said he was a part of building the fire district up more than 20 years ago, adding the department started taking calls in 2001.
