VICTORIA, Australia - Nillumbik Mayor Michael Young said he was happy to pledge his support to the firefighters involved in rescue operations in Eltham and surrounding suburbs, the Diamond Valley Leader reported.
“I commend the CFA volunteers for their actions under such circumstances when lives are at stake and quick decisions needed to be made,” Cr Young said.
The CFA has stood down a member from driving and not ruled out punishing the four-man crew after the footage raised questions about the authority’s safety procedures.
