‘I thought I was dead’: Injured firefighter recognized for heroic actions
Description
April 10, 2023
A Vancouver firefighter says he thought he was dead when a vehicle exploded next to him as he was attempting to put out a fire almost a year ago. The Port Moody incident was connected to a suspected gang hit. As Kristen Robinson reports, Massimo Cerantola's recovery has been long and hard, but he is happy to be doing what he loves once again.
