Skagit First Responders Go High Tech



SEDRO WOOLLEY, Wash. (Metro)  -- Sedro-Woolley and Mount Vernon first responders are going high tech. 

The fire departments have recently started using a new technology which allows them to communicate more efficiently and helps improve safety. 

The program is called Spillman Mobile. 

Officials say the program features a GPS navigation system, incident information and a messaging system that helps first responders collect more accurate data. 

Authorities are hoping to have first responders countywide on board soon.
