Residents who fled the deadly Gabriel House fire said fire drills were never conducted. The fire chief says there's a good reason for that.

River called mutual aid during the Gabriel House fire when firefighters were overwhelmed. But they covered stations, not the fire. Here's why.

River Fire Department will hold a briefing Wednesday afternoon to update the investigation into the deadly fire at Gabriel House.

A resident of Gabriel House has sued the assisted living facility for negligence following last week’s fire that claimed ten lives, while Governor Maura Healey visits Fall River to announce new statewide fire safety measures and additional funding for emergency response.

Fire Chief Jeffrey Bacon said he hopes to ultimately hire 22 new firefighters for his department, bringing it to 200 total.
