It is with profound sorrow we announce the passing of K-9 Blaze. Past Chief Eric DiBatrolo is K-9 Blaze's owner and handler. Both are members of Westchester County Arson Team Zone 4. Blaze was instrumental in several investigations, prosecutions and convictions; most notably he assisted in the conviction to a double homicide in Peekskill.
"All will agree that we are proud to have been able to call Blaze one of our Team members". James Cuff County Car 24

Blaze was a gentle, and a pleasure to be around, whether it was marching in a parade or showing his skill at varies county meetings. More importantly is when he made appearances in schools with the kids during fire prevention week.
Yorktown Heights Engine Company member extend our sincere condolences to our brother Eric and his family for the loss of Blaze.
Service information will be posted when made available.
