Early morning call for 896 as we went to 816 Stella Ave to assist with rehab for a 1-alarm house fire.
First arriving companies found heavy fire showing from the house. They had a difficult time fighting the fire based on how far the house was off the street and the number of trees in the yard.

Box 4 answered a special call for rehab last night at a truck lot at Luna Rd & Ryan Rd on the west side of Dallas.
The initial call was for a vehicle fire involving a tractor trailer at the site. Due to the long distance from the closest hydrant and the need to lay a large amount of supply line, extra units were called to assist. The fire also spread to the surrounding area around the truck.

Box 4 was honored to receive a generous donation from the Fireline Fund Dallas today. These young men are an amazing force in our community and they are making an impact helping to support our first responders.
Two of the young men had family members who lost their home in the Palisades wildfire in Los Angeles. From that tragedy, the Fireline Fund was founded. Through the last year and a half, they have learned how to create and register a charity, the challenges of navigating government agencies and how to use their network to grow and develop funding. We look forward to many years of collaboration with the Fireline Fund and these wonderful young men.
