Our thoughts and prayers go out to their families. Two line of duty deaths in just as many days is truly heartbreaking.

This week our training involved Ice Rescue. Our crews work on this scenario annually in the event of a victim falling through the ice. The yellow suit donned by our personnel provides us with protection from the frigid water and allows us to utilize rope bags to perform a rescue.

Here is an image from the structure fire we fought today. These rooms are right across from each other. The ”clean” room had the door closed when the fire started in the “dirty” room.

Please remember to close your doors before you go to bed. Stay safe.
