VIDEO: With summer right around the corner, the Yuma Fire Department (YFD) held a training Wednesday to prepare firefighters for drownings. The fire department got out a boat and some jet skis to familiarize themselves with how to save people from drowning. YFD is looking to minimize drownings after seeing several last year. “We want to waterproof our children in Yuma,” said David Padilla from the Yuma Fire Department. One particular area they're focusing on is the river and other natural bodies of water. Fire Captain Aaron Wonders hopes his firefighters can become more familiar with the flowing waters. “Having everybody more proficient and more fluent in their mariner skills driving the boats and performing as a rescuer and just scouting the river,” said Wonders.
