Emergency responders are tasked with answering a wide array of calls for service and that was certainly the case for the Dover-Foxcroft Fire Department on Tuesday, September 3rd. "Happened to be at the right place at the right time I guess you can call it," said Dover-Foxcroft Fire Department Firefighter and Advanced EMT Carter Merrill. On Tuesday at around 1 o'clock in the afternoon the Dover-Foxcroft Fire Department responded to a call on the side of Route 15 (Bangor Road) around 5 miles away from the middle of town. That call wasn't one they usually get. "We were sitting at the table, it was our lunch break, and got toned out to the Bangor Road for a possible childbirth," said Merrill. According to the department, Chief Brian Gaudet, Assistant Chief and EMS Director Eric Melia, Firefighter and Advanced EMT Carter Merrill, quickly made their way to the car parked on the side of Route 15.
