Fire Captain Scott Carroll, 48, on November 28, 2015 fell ill while working a duty shift that had included one cooking fire and two EMS calls. Captain Carroll left the station for his personal physician’s office and then home to rest where, two days later, on November 30, 2015, he was found by his wife having suffered a fatal brain aneurysm.
Our condolences to the Carroll Family & Friends, City of Oxnard Fire Department and to all affected by Fire Captain Scott Carroll’s passing.
