Fundraiser to Help Victims' Families, Survivors After Fatal Fall River Fire

Last Friday evening, community members gathered at St. John's Athletic Club on Rodman Street, benefiting survivors and families of the Gabriel House fire.
Fall River Fire Chief Jeffrey Bacon said the fire originated in a second-floor south wing room on Sunday night, July 13, 2025, and the cause remains under investigation, not believed to be suspicious.
Rescue operations saw many residents carried out by first responders or rescued from windows by firefighters on ladders, highlighting the urgency of the response.
Starting Monday, the Executive Office of Aging & Independence announced measures to ensure all 273 assisted living facilities are prepared for emergencies.
Facilities must send letters to residents and families detailing fire safety protocols within 30 calendar days, all assisted living facilities, said Healey’s office, to ensure emergency preparedness.
