Firefighters from multiple agencies worked together to rescue a driver trapped in an unstable RV that had partially gone off the road. What began as a report of an unknown injury accident quickly turned into a rescue operation for Rosalia Fire Department and St. John Fire.

Units from St. John Fire arrived first and found an RV that had gone partly off the road over a steep embankment. The person inside had no life-threatening injuries but was pinned in the driver seat by contents in the RV. The RV was in an unstable position and shifted on the soft shoulder of the road as crews talked to the person inside. When the Rosalia rescue truck and a rescue member from City of Colfax Fire arrived, the RV was secured and the person was successfully freed.

PHOTOS: A house designated as surplus within a city park was put to good use on Saturday by Clallam County Fire District 3. Thirty-five career and volunteer firefighters conducted multiple live-fire drills throughout March 21 in the two-story home within the City of Sequim’s Gerhardt Park. After proper permitting, the City of Sequim offered the house to the fire district for training purposes after they did not receive any bids to move the house at 1610 S. Third Ave.

It was allowed to safely burn down Saturday afternoon after many training rotations. “These types of trainings are truly valuable to the organization,” said Fire Chief Justin Grider. “They are such value-added. We’ve got firefighters working on our staff that since they’ve been on, they haven’t had a structure fire to go to. “They’ve done a lot of medical calls, car crashes, but fires are few and far between, so when we get an acquired structure like this, to put that much realism and that much training behind it, it’s a valuable experience for them.”

Firefighters must participate in live-fire training once a year, Grider said, and they typically do that in training container boxes. “But those are predictable because there’s only so many variables you can learn from those,” he said. Firefighters all conducted a safety walk-through in the house before the training began, including the fire district’s Explorer Scout Post 1003 of high schoolers who conducted their own training there without fire earlier in the week. Grider said firefighters on Saturday were divided up in teams, and didn’t know which of the eight rooms were going to be on fire for each rotation.
