On January 1, 2026, the Petro team in Poughkeepsie, NY played an important role in supporting emergency crews battling a major fire at a historic property in Hyde Park, NY. As firefighters worked to contain the blaze, our driver Ramon Huertas arrived on site to deliver diesel fuel, ensuring that fire department equipment could continue operating without interruption.

The fire, which affected multiple historic structures, required a significant response from local departments. Ramon’s quick response and professionalism helped support first responders during a challenging and fast‑moving incident. His actions reflect the commitment and reliability our teams bring to the communities we serve every day.
