A video released by the UC Davis (CA) Fire Department has given civilians a glimpse into what it’s like for crews to battle a wildfire.

The video, shot from inside the cab of Brush 34 at the Tamarack Fire, shows flames and sparks engulfing the apparatus.

According to a report from nwfDailyNews, the Walton County (FL) Board of County Commissioners and Sheriff Mike Adkinson met at the 10-acre plot of land at 13350 State Road 83 N. on Wednesday, July 21, to unveil the site of the Walton County Fire Rescue’s (WCFR’s) new Glendale and Gaskin fire station. 

Once completed, the new station will allow the WCFR to staff three members in one engine and increase ambulance services to the rural north side of the county.

Adkinson said the WCFR has been responding to an increasing number of emergency medical calls during the past two years. With the new station, residents of Glendale, Gaskin, and Darlington should experience faster response times and an increased level of service.

Adkinson also said he plans to add more positions for paramedics to assist emergency medical technicians after the station is complete. 

Last month, the WCFR became the first fire rescue organization in the Florida Panhandle to earn an EMS accreditation.

The station is still in its preliminary planning stages and there is a ways to go before construction begins. However, the project will be in the county’s budget for the upcoming fiscal year. 

Fire over ran a brush truck and badly burned a firefighter in a wildland fire in southern Montana, according to a report broadcast by KSLTV.

The television station reported a two-person crew was battling part of the Harris Fire when the wind shifted and overran the crew and apparatus.

Firefighter Dan Steffensen didn’t make it back to the brush truck before fire out ran him, the station reported. He was airlifted to the University of Utah Burn Center where he listed in serious condition. He is a member of the Red Lodge Fire Rescue team in Montana, according to KSLTV.

The fire, which was listed at 2,500 acres, is near Joilet, MT, some 35 miles outside of Billings, according to the television station.  

A man from Maine has been charged with stealing a fire truck from the Colonie (NY) Fire Department, according to WRGB 6 television station.

The station reported the truck was stolen from a Colonie training facility in October 2020 and later found in Schenectady.

The man, Ted Zarina, 29, of Wallagrass, ME, has allegedly been connected to several vehicle thefts, the station reported.

More recently, Zarina was arrested by Hartford, CT, police on other charges and returned to Colonie where he has been charged with grand larceny and burglary, the station reported.
