Middleton Fire Department

Important weather update for Memorial Day 2026.

The members of the Middleton Fire Department extend our deepest sympathies following the tragic passing of Firefighter Robert “Bobby” Killduff. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and fellow members of the Boston Fire Department as they navigate this tremendous loss.

It's getting hot in here! If you're breaking out the air conditioner to beat the heat, remember that ACs and other heavy appliances should always be plugged directly into a wall outlet -- not an extension cord or power strip. More electrical safety tips: https://ow.ly/TFJg50SBOW6

The Middleton Fire Department would like to congratulate Lucas Magnifico on successfully completing his senior internship with the department. We appreciate his hard work, professionalism, and dedication throughout his time with us. We would also like to wish Lucas all the best as he prepares to graduate and begin the next chapter of his life. Congratulations, Lucas, and best of luck in all your future endeavors!

Thanks to all the mothers out there for all their love and support! Please remember that older adults are at greatest risk in the event of a fire at home. Show Mom some love: If she needs a hand installing, testing, maintaining, or replacing her alarms, offer to lend a hand.

Modern house fires can become deadly in just three minutes. That's why working and a practiced home escape plan are crucial tools for surviving a fire at home. Be sure you have a plan that includes two ways out and accounts for your needs. Learn more: https://ow.ly/SREF50YNUIO
