Swampscott firefighters step up for community

SWAMPSCOTT - Senior citizens and veterans concerned about theft of their personal information have a new tool in the fight against identity theft.
The Swampscott Firefighters of IAFF Local 1459 purchased and donated industrial quality document shredders for the Swampscott Senior Center and Veterans of Foreign Wars.
Union President William Hyde Jr. said the donation would help individuals and the organizations to help prevent identity theft.
"We thought it would help seniors and veterans," he said. "It gives them a way to shred their personal paperwork to help protect their identities. We thought this would be a good way to help out seniors and veterans."
