| Pilot and community commended for response to Houston plane crash VIDEO: The fire chief of Houston, Alaska, is commending the pilot of a small plane that crashed Thursday near a subdivision for intentionally avoiding homes. The plane crashed at about 4:30 p.m. near the Dilley Estates subdivision, Christian Hartley said, Houston's fire chief. The pilot and a passenger suffered minor injuries. Multiple people saw the plane going down and immediately went to the scene in snowmachines and ATVs Hartley said. "It's not just the residents of Houston," Hartley said. "Houston is just like real Alaska. If you want to know where the real Alaskans are, they're the people out there running to help others that need help. They see something that needs fixed, they just focus on fixing it. They don't wait for someone else to come. They're there. They're going to fix it and all of those residents in that subdivision came down to help as much as they could and anyway they could. It just says a lot about the Alaska spirit."

| Driver charged with 5 counts of manslaughter in wreck with Oklahoma firetruck VIDEOS: The driver of the car who wrecked with a Tulsa firetruck on Feb. 26 is facing five counts of manslaughter and one count of driving under the influence, according to court documents. The wreck happened around 5:30 p.m. when 28-year-old Keiosha Rucker, driving a white Hyundai, pulled in front of a Tulsa fire truck that was responding with lights and sirens to a call. A neighbor in the area of 41st and Harvard caught the wreck on his security camera. Tulsa police said the impact of the wreck caused the car to spin off the road and crash into a telephone pole. Six people were in the car — a one-year-old boy, a 4-year-old girl, a 5-year-old boy, and three women aged 23, 26, and 28. The wreck claimed the lives of all three children and the 23-year-old woman. KJRH-TV NBC 2 TULSA Denver metro firefighters hit the bars with bagpipes, drums for St. Patrick's Day fundraiser VIDEO: The sound of bagpipes and snare drums could be heard up and down Denver's Market Street throughout St. Patrick's Day weekend. "We are raising money for what we do all year long," said Paulette Diaz, member of Colorado Emerald Society Pipes and Drums. "It's an honor because we're honoring our fallen firefighters and fallen police officers and fallen medics." Colorado Emerald Society Pipes and Drums marching band performed Sunday evening inside the Celtic on Market. It's not their typical scene. Normally, they play at funerals. Diaz was a Denver firefighter for nearly 27 years. She retired in January and continues to give back through music. KUSA-TV NBC/MYNETWORKTV 9 DENVER Maxim fire engine celebrates 100th birthday at Massachusetts fire station PHOTOS: The red paint of the 1923 Maxim fire engine glistened in the afternoon sunlight as it stood in front of the Northborough fire station. "It's more than just a truck. It's more than just steel on wheels," said Shay Bailey. Members of the Northborough Firefighters Association are celebrating the engine's 100th birthday. "There's a lot of pride in this truck," said Paul Fiske. Inside the hood ornament bears the name Maxim Motor Companies, which was headquartered in Middleborough, and from which the town purchased the engine in 1922. According to David Hunt, at that time, the Northborough Fire Department was all-volunteer. The engine, which cost $8,000, was custom made by Maxim. "We were a very big Maxim fire department, but this is the first and the best pump that they had at the time when they went to gasoline-powered equipment," said Hunt.
