MALDEN, MA — Malden Mayor Gary Christenson recently paid tribute to six Malden firefighters who helped rescue a person from a fire in Revere Aug. 5. The firefighters were covering for the Revere Fire Department, who were at the scene of another fire at the same time. Malden's Engine 4 and Ladder 1 found "an intense volume of fire consuming the rear of a wood-frame, multi-occupancy, residential building" on Mooney Road in Revere, city officials said. As crews battled the fire, they saw a resident attempting to break out of a window on the second floor. Both crews brought their ladders to the window and pulled the man to safety as the fire advanced toward the room. Christenson commended the firefighters' actions, presented citations and thanked them for their continued service.
