Insurance Commissioner honors two Wilmington firefighters with SAVE award By WECT Staff | April 14, 2021 at 4:15 PM EDT - Updated April 14 at 5:38 PM
WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - Two Wilmington Fire Department firefighters received an award Wednesday after a babyâs life was saved in a car wreck earlier this year because the firefighters had correctly installed the babyâs car seat the day before.
North Carolina Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey presented the SAVE award to Eli Venecia and Josh Gibson at a presentation at Station 2 on Park Avenue Wednesday afternoon.
Venecia and Gibson assisted baby Harrisâ grandmother, Sandra Aldridge, with the installation of a car seat in January because she had noticed it was loose and not properly secured. Less than 24 hours later, the car was totaled in a wreck.
