Local firefighters practice high-angle rope rescue drills

More than a dozen local firefighters and SWAT team members practiced high-angle rope rescue drills from the roof of the 28-story Enclave at Park Shore building on Thursday morning in Naples.

The City of Naples Fire Department organized the training to give emergency workers access to floors of the building above the reach of fire engine ladders.

The Enclave at Park Shore on Gulf Shore Boulevard North is one of the tallest buildings in Collier County.
