FIirst responders engage in water rescue training
Joint water rescue training by the Lebanon Fire Department, Mt. Juliet Fire Department and Wilson County Emergency Management Agency occurred this week across two days. Tuesday, May 27, and Wednesday, May 28, saw the training between the Jimmy Floyd Center and Stones River near the Percy Priest Dam for hands-on, in-the-water practice. According to the agencies, training focused on victim rescue, rope and non-rope throw bag techniques, boat flipping and water entry. 'These skills aren't just good to know, they're required,' WEMA said. '[Tennessee Emergency Management Agency] mandates that these competencies be demonstrated annually for members to stay eligible for EMAC (Emergency Management Assistance Compact) deployments.' With the training, the agencies say they're ready in case of a water-related emergency response. 'Training together like this ensures our departments can work together in any emergency situation,' WEMA said. Rehab 23 also attended the training to provide hydration and food for the first responders as they trained. With the amount of rain Middle Tennessee has seen this year, including localized flooding, this training is even more necessary, according to WEMA.

Wilson County EMA, fire departments hold swift water rescue training
WILSON COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) — We've seen our fair share of rain this spring, which is why Wilson County rescue teams are making sure they're prepared for swift water emergencies. On Wednesday, multiple agencies held a joint training, and News 2 was there. 'We've got Wilson County EMA, Lebanon Fire Department, Mt. Juliet Fire Department all here,' Maegan Eldridge, PIO and administrative for Wilson County EMA, said. Wednesday morning, multiple crews in Wilson County were training for real-world water rescue scenarios. 📧 Have breaking news come to you: → 'They are doing anything from boat flipping, to rescuing victims to self-rescue to rescuing with and without a rope bag and its multi-agency because when it comes to an emergency we want to work with all of our agencies to work quickly and effectively to be able to respond as quick as possible,' Eldridge said. During the springtime, Wilson County EMA said they see more swift water rescue calls. 'A lot of times we get flash floods where cars drive into flooded waterways,' Colton Young, Lieutenant with Wilson County EMA said. Lieutenant Young said a newer tool, WEMA, has been used for people who may be stuck in water on the roadways. 'We can quickly inflate these and deploy in ten minutes to rescue someone.' However, during the summer, the concern can be on Middle Tennessee's lakes and rivers. 'Wilson County has about 58 square miles of lake,' Young said. ⏩ So far this year, six deaths have been reported on Tennessee waterways. This Memorial Day weekend, Wilson County EMA said, thankfully, there were no reports of water rescues. However, this is the message they continue to send out. 'A life jacket is going to save your life, and if you don't have it on, there is nothing that's going to happen. Life jackets are extremely important. Anyone going out on the water, please use a jacket,' Eldridge said. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

Top stocks to buy today, May 8: Marico, Manappuram Finance on analyst radar
Markets remained volatile but managed to close slightly in the green amid mixed signals. Geopolitical tensions, following India's military response to a terrorist attack, triggered a gap-down opening. However, a swift recovery helped the indices edge higher by the close. As a result, the Nifty index settled at 24,414.40, up 0.14%. Sector-wise, the trend was mixed—auto, realty, and metal sectors posted gains, while pharma and FMCG ended in the red. Broader markets also recouped intraday losses and closed with gains of over a percent. Looking ahead, domestic uncertainties are expected to continue driving volatility. However, stable global cues and sustained FII buying are helping to delicately balance the market despite geopolitical risks. All eyes are now on the US Fed, and markets are likely to react to the FOMC meeting outcome and commentary in early trades. On the index front, Nifty is attempting to hold the 24,100 level; a breach could lead to further downside towards 23,800. Until then, the index is expected to trade within the 24,100–24,600 range. In the current scenario, traders are advised to adopt a cautious approach and avoid aggressive positions until the market stabilizes. Marico has been trading in a steady uptrend and is currently hovering near its record high. The stock has formed an elevated base above the neckline of its previous consolidation zone, setting ground for the next leg of up move. The steady rising structure with supportive volumes, signals an inherent strength in price. Traders can consider long in the mentioned range. Samvardhana Motherson International Limited |LTP: 142.46| Buy | Target: 153| Stop-loss: 137 After experiencing significant correction from its all-time high, the stock found support around its 200 WEMA and bounced back strongly. It has formed a small base near its short term moving average creating a fresh pivot. The volumes have been robust during this rebound suggesting buying interest from lower levels. We expect this recovery to strengthen further and hence longs can be created in the mentioned range. Manappuram Finance Limited | LTP: 230.69| Buy | Target: 248| Stop-loss: 222 Manappuram has registered a breakout from a multi-year cup and handle pattern, which is a bullish continuation formation. However, post breakout, the stock turned sideways trading in a tight consolidation range. In the process, it has formed a sturdy base above the pattern neckline, setting ground for resumption of uptrend.
