Injured Salisbury (MD) Firefighter in Good Spirits After Accident with Fire Apparatus

Though the Salisbury firefighter injured this weekend remains in good spirits after being struck by a city firetruck over the weekend, officials said he may be looking at additional surgeries on his road to recovery.

Fire Chief Richard Hoppes said the firefighter was already in his second surgery as the accident was being addressed during the city's Tuesday morning public safety briefing and could be looking at undergoing another procedure Wednesday. At this time, officials have not identified the firefighters involved in the accident.

Drive-By Shooting Damages Topeka (KS) Fire Station

Fire officials say that the Soldier Township fire station at 600 N.W. 46th St. in Topeka was damaged after a drive-by shooting Monday evening. Staff noticed a single bullet hole that went through an overhead door and a back window of the station.

Two people were at the station at the time, but neither heard the gun shot. They saw the damage a short time later.

Soldier Township Battalion Chief Chris Hamilton, who was on duty at the time, said he wasn’t sure why the fire station was a target.
