Water bombers landing in Saint Margarets Bay and heading to fire Halifax Fire News

I’ve known the young man interviewed in this news clip for many years. Riley Coffey is a volunteer firefighter (who currently works at Apple in Halifax) and is super smart, kind, and capable. Huge thanks to Riley and all the first responders working across the province. ❤️

Hoping for a positive outcome, this will be a very challenging search and rescue.
