Ray Mabry, who gave the lone dissenting vote against the sale, offered his opinion that the truck should first be offered to mutual aid partners as a courtesy. Mabry said he knows of the excellent condition the truck has been kept in and thought it should not go to a wholesale auction before community partners had a shot at it.

On Sunday, firefighters spent the day moving equipment, turnout gear, and fire apparatus over to the new building, according to the fire department.

Over the next month, firefighters will continue putting the finishing touches on the building as they continue to get back to a normal pre-fire operation, according to the fire department.

This fire pumper will be used for hands-on training that involves proper procedures for riding and working around fire apparatus, to include advancing hose lines, ground ladder work, driver training, pump operator training, and service testing of fire apparatus.

The Idaho State Journal reported that three firefighters were injured in what was called a "freak accident" at the scene of a wildfire.

The Downey (ID) firefighters were in their five-ton, 6x6 fire truck when a gasoline can fell off the truck. The truck then ran over the can, which was full of gasoline, and this caused the apparatus to ignite and quickly become engulfed by flames.

The firefighters escaped the vehicle but all three suffered burns, one of them on 40 percent of his body. The other two firefighters suffered less severe burns, with one of them also breaking his leg. The truck was destroyed.
