The January 6 incident at the U.S. Capitol presented a unique set of circumstances for the D.C. Fire and EMS Department: a planned protest turned into a riot.

At this webinar, Fire and EMS Chief John Donnelly and Deputy Fire Chief Daniel McCoy of the DC Fire and EMS Department will discuss the emergency response to the January 6 incident and lessons that can be learned for fire and EMS agencies.
