| Glenn Highway bridge at South Peters Creek exit damaged by excavator A bridge carrying Glenn Highway traffic over a road at the South Peters Creek exit was hit Monday by an excavator being carried on a trailer, necessitating repairs. The Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities said the right-hand shoulder of the northbound lane of the highway will be closed until the bridge is repaired, but did not expand on expected delays as that happens. A department spokesperson said that the bridge was hit by the large construction equipment Monday around 4:15 p.m. as a trailer hauling the excavator drove under the highway bridge on Ski Road. Authorities said one girder was damaged and needs to be replaced, while "several others" took on minor damage and can be repaired in place. KTUU-TV NBC 2 ANCHORAGE PREVIOUS STATE NEWS |

| VIDEO: Firefighters battle large house fire in Louisiana Firefighters with the St. Tammany Fire Protection District No. 11 battled a massive house fire overnight. The fire broke out at a home on Allen Crawford Road near Pearl River sometime around 10:00 p.m. Wednesday and was under control at about 1:00 a.m. Thursday. The fire department says everyone inside got out and was safe before the fire consumed the entire house. Video from the fire department shows the intensity of the fire. Flames can be seen enveloping the entire structure of the home and even completely destroying a nearby parked SUV. No word on what caused the fire. WWL-TV CBS 4 NEW ORLEANS Legacy of firefighting equipment comes alive at Pennsylvania fire company's museum PHOTOS: Bernard Boltz believes Perseverance Fire Company in Jonestown has a long history of using cutting-edge firefighting technology. "History runs deep with the company, and we're the second oldest in the county," said Boltz, noting that Union Fire Company Engine 16 in Lebanon is the oldest, having been founded in the late 1700s. "Our members take pride in it and we've always tried to be cutting edge." Nowhere is that more evident in the historic firefighting gear and other apparatus that's featured in their fire museum. Situated in several rooms in their firehouse, the museum contains artifacts from as early as the 1800s. (One of the two museum rooms mostly houses historic items related to Jonestown, founded in 1761, and other memorabilia from the surrounding area.) LEBTOWN Electric vehicle fires are a real pain point for Arizona firefighters, but new technology could help VIDEOS: When a Tesla crashed and burst into flames in Scottsdale, it reignited on the tow truck. On a California highway, it took firefighters three hours and 6,000 gallons of water to stop an Electric Vehicle (EV) from burning. "Electric vehicle fires have become really a pain for us," said Dave Folio of the Scottsdale Fire Department. EV fires are dangerous, costly, and full of unknowns. "We're still figuring out ways to deal with them; Everything from putting them in a dumpster and loading sand on top of them and possibly even burying them in some cases," Folio said. "Right now, we're all scrambling to come up with a better way." There's no single tool that is standard for all firefighters to use while battling EV fires, but there is new technology that could help. KTVK-TV CBS 3 & KPHO-TV CBS 5 PHOENIX (AZ FAMILY) Florida fire rescue captain deployed to Israel shares firsthand account amid war VIDEO: A South Florida firefighter on a mission in Israel shared his firsthand account after he answered the call for help amid the ongoing conflict. Just outside of Tel Aviv, firefighters heard sirens in the distance and missiles passing above them. Among them was Fort Lauderdale Fire Rescue Capt. Jason Friedman. He spoke with 7News via Zoom on Wednesday. "It was a little nerve-racking, to say the least," he said. Heart-stopping video showed what the the first responder experienced while he was looking for shelter shortly after he arrived in Israel. Friedman is there with Emergency Volunteers Project, or EVP, and on day 6 of his deployment, he was stationed in Jerusalem, where he described it as eerily quiet. "I'm at a station that normally runs numbers between 10 and 15 calls a day. We've been running maybe, like, three to four calls a day," he said. WSVN-TV FOX 7 MIAMI Firefighters recall ghostly experiences at former South Carolina fire station VIDEO: Located on the upper part of Rivers Avenue in North Charleston sits a former fire station – Old Station 6 – that some believe carries a deeper history. The building is now privately owned, but former employees of the old fire station say they have felt a presence while previously working on the property. There are a number of stories as to how Old Station 6 in North Charleston became haunted. "From what I have been told when I first came in, there was a train accident and the train hit a car and it took about a mile before the train came to a stop with the vehicle. And the guys who were before me, claim that the guy on the train right behind here came, moved in here and that's who been here," said Battalion Chief Alkahabir Smith.
