| VIDEO: Multiple units respond to Eagle River fire Multiple units responded to a structure fire in Eagle River Saturday afternoon. According to Anchorage Fire Department Battalion Chief Mike Davidson, 23 units initially responded to the fire on Heritage Place just past 6 p.m. Saturday. The blaze burned a group of six apartments. "They were able to pretty quickly, simultaneously work on bringing the fire under control, as well as to identify that all of the occupants had safely evacuated the building," Davidson said. "So once we determined that we were able to place quite a few of our units back in service because we determined our primary life-hazard that we're most concerned about, had been addressed." No injuries have been reported. The Red Cross of Alaska is assisting 12 residents impacted by the fire. KTUU-TV NBC 2 ANCHORAGE PREVIOUS STATE NEWS |

| VIDEO: North Carolina firefighters battle house inferno Winston-Salem firefighters battled an inferno at a house on Sunday morning. Video shows crews attempting to put out the blaze that engulfed the house on Patterson Avenue completely in flames at 3:15 a.m. A person with The Habitat Homeless Veterans Transition Project, LLC tells FOX8 that the house was one of their homes. Aftermath video shot by FOX8's Brandon Talton shows the smoldering remains of the house. The Habitat Homeless Veterans Transition Project representative says that they were refurbishing the house that had been vacant for around 10 years in order to use it as a shelter for six 18-year-olds who will be timing out of foster care. The roof of the house had just been replaced and the wiring was halfway from being completely re-done, according to The Habitat Homeless Veterans Transition Project representative. WGHP-TV FOX 8 HIGH POINT Firefighter who pulled lone survivor from Flight 255 wreckage in Michigan talks about crash, 35 years later VIDEO: It's been 35 years since the tragic crash of Northwest Flight 255. The plane crashed shortly after takeoff from Detroit Metro Airport back on Aug. 16, 1987, killing 156 people -- with just one person surviving, a four-year-old girl. Hank Winchester talked with Captain John Thiede of the Romulus Fire Department, the firefighter who pulled that child from the wreckage that night. "I was just checking this, it was weird. When I look back at it, I can picture how the scene was," Thiede said. "Once we found her, we had that little piece of joy that we found a survivor, because we didn't think we'd find anybody." Cecilia Cichan was the four-year-old girl who suffered serious injuries, but survived the crash. The family she was traveling with did not survive. The family was from Arizona. WDIV-TV NBC 4 DETROIT Florida county's first firefighting academy for high schoolers opens at local high school Palm Bay High School's new firefighting academy is serious business — and not just because, as instructor Chester Bombriant quipped, "everything in that classroom could hurt you." It's also a college-level course, and it's the first of its kind in Brevard County. About 100 students are in the program. On Friday, some of them saw their new classroom for the first time along with school administrators, local firefighters and reporters. The program will give students a head start at a well-paying career, and could help address a local shortage of firefighters, officials said. The course is designed to prepare students for the fire fighting program at Eastern Florida State, and eventually their state certifications. "They're going to be doing for the first two or three years here before they get over there," Bombriant said. FLORIDA TODAY - METERED SITE Memorial unveiled for fallen firefighters in South Carolina VIDEO: Sitting in the heart of downtown Anderson is a new memorial dedicated to the firefighters who were killed in the line of duty. "This monument stands as a symbol of strength, courage, dedication, brotherhood and sacrifice," Anderson Fire Chief Charlie King said. "I'm sure that no one on this memorial would have ever known they were answering their last call," Dr. Jimmy Smith, the Chief of the Honea Path Fire Department added. The project was a collaboration between the city, county and artist Scott Foster. "We believe it not only stands as a formidable memorial but also as an asset to the community," Foster said. The structure is 14 feet tall and has a bell at the top. Each side features different scenes of firefighters in action.
