The Fortuna Volunteer Fire Department has unveiled a new training facility, reports Times-Standard.

The new facility will be available for use by all Eel River Valley and other Humboldt County fire and law enforcement agencies.

The facility will also be made available to students participating in the annual Eel River Valley Fire Academy and the fire academy at College of the Redwoods.

The city council unanimously approved the purchase of a fire truck and supporting rescue tools, reports Pharos Tribune.

Alexis Fire Equipment will provide the fire truck for approximately $773,000. Currently, a hold on parts has forced a delay. Fire Chief Rick Bair remains optimistic that the new truck could be delivered by September.

The rescue truck will carry a 250-gallon water pump and will have state-of-the-art fire equipment, including a battery-powered Jaws of Life.

The fire department has been using a 15-year-old rescue truck, and the fire department is long overdue for a more technical vehicle.

Charleston Police are investigating a stolen ambulance that was recovered almost immediately after, reports WSAZ 3.

According to Charleston Police, CAMC General workers notified first responders the ambulance had been stolen. A Charleston police officer then spotted the ambulance soon after.

Police also said a CPD cruiser parked outside the hospital had windshield damage. It is possible the two incidents are related.
