We joined Dave Davis @NewsOn6 this morning to talk holiday safety. Cooking and heating equipment increase the risk of home fires this time of year.
Enjoy the holidays safely!

Project Life is happening today!
Following a recent fatal fire, TFD is canvassing the highlighted areas and installing free smoke alarms for residents.
A working smoke alarm provides early warning and could save your life.

Tulsa firefighters responded to 5 separate fires between 3–6 a.m. Wednesday. The fires occurred at multiple locations and are being investigated as a series of arson-related incidents. No civilian injuries or fatalities were reported. #SeeSomethingSaySomething#arsoninvestigation
25 years later, we remember.
We remember the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the firefighters, police officers, paramedics and countless others who ran toward danger to help others.
We honor their courage, sacrifice and service.
We remember. We will never forget.
Chief Justin Lemery joined LeAnne Taylor on @NewsOn6 to discuss TFD’s Mobile Integrated Health programs.
Through CARES, we connect people with resources and reduce repeat 911 calls—achieving a 70% reduction in high-utilizer calls in just 3 months.

CLOSE BEFORE YOU DOZE
At 1:42 p.m., TFD responded to a house fire near E 21st St. & S Darlington Ave.
The fire started next to a room with a closed door. That room had virtually no fire damage.
Close your bedroom doors. Check your smoke alarms. Get out & stay out.
Tulsa’s heat can cause smoke alarms to sound because of changes in temperature & humidity, condensation, dust or age.
When it sounds, always check for fire.
Test your alarm
Check the date, replace at 10 years
Apartment? Contact management
Need an alarm? TFD provides them FREE.
Glenpool Fire is working a fire at the Explorer Pipeline tank farm. Three tanks are reportedly involved.
If in the Glenpool area, stay indoors when possible to limit exposure. Monitor trusted local sources for updates.
