A full view of the West End Breakwater from the end of Commercial Street to Long Point
PROVINCETOWN – Provincetown Fire and Rescuers were called to a familiar location Tuesday afternoon. About 12:45 PM a person walking the West End Breakwater reportedly slipped and fell on the rocks. With the tide high, firefighters working at Flyers Boat Yard were able to reach the scene by boat eliminating the need for the victim to be carried to shore in a stokes basket. The victim was taken to Cape Cod Hospital with a possible head injury. Each summer fire crews seem to respond to a number of slip and falls at the breakwater.
