FIRE SERVICE PHONES DOWN

Two of six telephone lines going into two divisions of the V.I. Fire Services are not working.
The Fire Service moved to the Crown Bay landfill on June 2 and have experienced "difficulties with the lines" ever since, according to a release from Government House.
Fire Services director Pedro Encarnacion said, "If you are calling and do not receive the automated service, it means that your call is coming in on a line that has not been transferred."
He directed callers to "hang up and dial again."
"We are working diligently with Vitelco to transfer the other four incoming lines," he said.
Lines are down to the administrative office and the Arson Investigation and Prevention Unit in St. Thomas.
The telephone number is 774-1211.
