Tractor-Trailer Fire Blocks Lanes on Interstate in Virginia VIDEO: A tractor-trailer fire caused delays on Interstate 495 in McLean, Virginia, on Sunday, authorities said. The truck was at mile marker 43.5 on I-495. All lanes were closed, causing traffic to be backed up for about 1.3 miles, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT). Traffic was being diverted to Georgetown Pike. Vehicles that remained on the road were also turned around and directed to Georgetown Pike to clear some of the traffic, according to VDOT. The tractor-trailer was traveling southbound on I-495 when it crashed near Exit 44. Police responded to the crash at about 1 p.m. The impact of the crash caused the vehicle to catch fire, according to a Virginia State Police release. The driver was taken to the hospital with injuries that are not life-threatening. WRC-TV ABC 4 WASHINGTON, D.C.

KGTV ABC 10 SAN DIEGO 'Just imagine it': Massachusetts town reclaims 1948 fire truck, seeks money for restoration Jane Clockadile is the daughter of an Abington firefighter and granddaughter of a fire chief. She can trace a long line of firefighters back to her forefathers in the late 19th century, such that her family history and the history of the Abington Fire Department are virtually indistinguishable. Today, Clockadile is leading an initiative to restore a fire truck purchased new by the town in 1948 for $12,500. Though she has already done a lot to locate the truck and return it to Abington, significant challenges lay ahead. "I've come this far," Clockadile, whose birth name is Whitman, said. "I'll keep on going." When her cousin, a former firefighter, challenged her to track down Abington's 1942 Seagrave engine several years ago, she put her heart and soul into the investigation. "You can see why I am doing this restoration - in memory of family members," Clockadile said. THE PATRIOT LEDGER - METERED SITE Students in Nebraska gain real-world firefighting experience through one-of-a-kind community college internship A new program in Omaha is helping future firefighters get more hands-on experience as they finish their studies. "Every class you learn a lot, you know, book knowledge, but out here, you're really putting it to use," says Michael Molacek, a student at Metropolitan Community College studying fire science. Molacek is one of around a dozen who are involved in a new internship designed by the fire science program at MCC that partners with Bennington Fire & Rescue. "We are the only school and fire district that have an internship program similar to this, they actually work here alongside an active fire department and the crew thats on duty 24 hours a day," says Jeff Strawn, the Fire Science Program Director at MCC. Several times each month, students will spend a full shift at Bennington learning from the staff and volunteers. WOWT-TV NBC 6 OMAHA PREVIOUS NATIONAL NEWS |
