Did anyone find a Top Peak bike bag? One of the cyclist lost it on the return he believes before the RM Bridges, if anyone should hear about it, please let me know. His RX sunglasses were in it. Thank you!

On 06/12/19 at approximately 6:30pm the West Islip Fire Department responded to a report of a BBQ on fire possibly close to a house in the area of Jefferson Ave and Fairfax Rd. Within minutes Captain Jeffrey Kempf Jr was on scene, reported heavy fire showing from the side of the dwelling and requested dispatch to transmit a working fire. Vanguard Engine 3-17-1 quickly arrived and stretched hose lines to the second floor. Other arriving crews stretched hose lines to assist and protected exposures. It took approximately one hour to get the fire under control. No injuries were reported to the occupants. Three firefighters were transported to Good Samaritan hospital with minor injuries. The cause of the fire is under investigation by the Town of Islip Fire Marshal and SCPD Arson Squad.
