Anthony, a fifth grade student at the East Somerville Community School, received a citation from Somerville Mayor Joseph Curtatone this week for taking quick action in calling 9-1-1 to alert emergency responders about a fire on Rush Street in early May. Thanks to Anthony’s decisive action, Somerville fire and other emergency crews were able to respond quickly to the fire that displaced several Somerville families. Mayor Curtatone, Somerville Chief of Police Fallon, and members of the Somerville Fire Department thanked Anthony, recognizing his heroic and selfless actions. SFD Lieutenant Blanca Alcaraz encouraged Anthony’s classmates to “choose to do the right thing,” and to look to personal values as a motivator.
