An East Contra Costa Fire Protection District fire engine was involved in a rollover crash that injured one firefighter, reports East County Today.

A medical helicopter was requested after the firefighter sustained a head trauma. He was eventually transported by ground to a hospital.

County Hazmat was requested to the scene as diesel leaked into a storm drain.

Hastings Fire and Rescue has welcomed a 2019 Dodge Ram with four-wheel drive, reports Hastings Tribune.

The newest apparatus is a 160-gallon water tank with a water pump with Class A firefighting foam capabilities, equipment for fighting wildland fires and advanced life support medical equipment.

The vehicle cost about $77,000 with around $10,000 of new equipment and about $30,000 in repurposed gear. The expense was included in the budget last year and approved by the Hastings City Council.

The public was invited to participate in the ceremony, beginning with hosing and drying off the vehicle.

Ground was recently broken for a new fire station that will sit on the border of Pulaski (AK) and Saline counties, reports arkansasonline.com.

The new station, to be located at 3006 Brush Mountain Trail in West Pulaski County, will serve residents on both sides of the county divide. The facility, likely to be completed by 1Q22, will be the sixth for the volunteer West Pulaski Fire Department, officials say.

“We had a great day with the groundbreaking of our new fire station planned at 3006 Brush Mountain Trail,” the department wrote on its website. “Thank you to all our friends, neighbors, and honored guests for joining us.”

The report notes that the additional station will likely mean a dip in homeowner insurance costs for some, as premiums depend on the quality of the nearby fire service.

To help pay for the station, which officials estimate will cost around $125,000, the department will ask residents to donate the first year of savings they get from their insurance premiums.

Firefighters with the Parishville (NY) Volunteer Fire Department are now in a new station with the opening of a facility on State Route 72, according to a report published by WWNY.

Firefighters were trying for years to get a new fire station and with the help of grant money and support from the community the dream has been achieved.

The station opened with a celebration and a parade, according to the television station.
