Kyle Adams is reporting in The Daily Mail Greene County Emergency Services Coordinator Aidan O’Connor Jr. was removed from his position Tues., Dec. 3. O’Connor’s unexpected ouster prompted deputy EMS coordinators Patty McAneny and Jeff Loucks to resign in solidarity. The reasons for his dismissal remain unclear. In an email to the newspaper, Thurs., Dec. 5, O'Connor wrote he was relieved of his duties as EMS Coordinator as of 10 a.m., Wednesday, and told his dismissal was based on unofficial complaints. Neither Greene County Emergency Services Director John Farrell nor Greene County Administrator Shaun Groden would comment on the matter other than to say O’Connor’s term as coordinator was set to expire Dec. 31, and he would not be reappointed. O’Connor recently received the Harriet C. Weber EMS Leadership Award from the Regional Emergency Medical Organization for his work in Greene County. Read the full story in The Daily Mail.
