The West Thurston (WA) Fire Department says thieves twice in the last week made off with full gas cans from its Littlerock Road station in Olympia.

The department is asking if anyone recognizes the SUV that was used in the heists, which were caught on surveillance footage this past Sunday evening and then again on Wednesday evening.

The vehicle appears to be a silver 2005 Chrysler Pacific SUV, which officials say came in from the south and left heading north on Littlerock Road.

Anyone with information should call 360-352-1614, the department pleads.

The Hollywood Park (TX) Fire Department plans to replace its 20-year-old ladder truck with an under-design new one by the end of 2022, reports exbulletin.com—though the purchase comes with a construction project.

The department has placed an order for and put a $592,190 down payment on a $1.6 million, 44-foot-long, 100-foot Pierce ladder, the report says.

Its predecessor’s ladder only reached 75 feet and is apparently shorter, as the fire hall’s bay needs to be expanded by 10 feet to fit the new apparatus, the report says.

Funds from department capital projects are being used to partially pay for the new apparatus, and the city is working with Government Capital Corp. to finance the remainder of the construction at an interest rate of 1.94% over five years, the report says.

Officials say if the city were to wait until fall 2022 to order the truck, its cost would increase by $45,000.

The driver of the Palm Beach (FL) County Fire Rescue fire truck that overturned near Powerline and Palmetto Park roads–which Fire Apparatus reported on in October–ran a red light and was broadsided by an oncoming pickup truck that didn’t yield, reports BocaNewsNow.com.

Samuel Navarrete ran the red light on October 23 en route to a call, the report says. As the apparatus went through the red light, Philippe Pierre of North Lauderdale in a 2008 Toyota Tundra hit its rear tire, which caused it to capsize.

The report notes that Palm Beach County self-insures its fire trucks, and the totaled truck is valued at $300,000.

The Lawrence (IN) Fire Department’s engineers and back-up engineers have recently been honing their pumping skills.

“They were given challenging situations during their scenarios. #Trainlikeyouworkandworklikeyoutrain,” the department says on Twitter.
