Assistant Chief Ed Quinto shared details from the rescue to News of the North. "Last night, Capital City Fire Rescue received a report of a male that was having medical issues on Thunder Mountain. He had gone up with a party, went to the top, and came down and started developing some medical issues and was dehydrated. One of the party members contacted the police department, 911," he said. "At about nine o'clock p.m., Capital City Fire Rescue responded to the end of Jennifer Drive where the party had started their hike. Some of the personnel that was in the party had made their way back down, but the individual that was having issues was still on the mountain." KINY-AM 800 JUNEAU PREVIOUS STATE NEWS |

Birmingham Fire and Rescue Service Firefighter Jordan Melton was pronounced dead at 6:06 p.m. Monday. He was 29 and had only been a firefighter for several weeks. "Birmingham Fire and Rescue mourns the loss of Firefighter Jordan Melton, who passed away this evening, ‘' Capt. Orlando Reynolds announced at 7:17 p.m. Firefighter Jamal Jones also was shot, and is recovering.

AL.COM New exhibit honors firefighters at Idaho train depot VIDEO: Earlier this month, the Canyon County Historical Society unveiled a new exhibit highlighting Nampa's history with fire and the history of Nampa's Fire Department. The exhibit is in one of the city's oldest buildings, the Nampa Train Depot, celebrating its 120th birthday this July. On July 3rd, 1909, an unknown individual lit a firework inside the cigar store across from the Train Depot causing a massive explosion and fire. "A lot of people may not understand or appreciate how close the town came to being destroyed and wiped off the map," says Canyon County Historical Society President Aldis Garsvo. Around half the town was destroyed. The parking lot across the street used to be buildings that were lost in the blaze. In true Idaho fashion, Nampa residents picked themselves up by their bootstraps and held Fourth of July celebrations the very next day. KIVI-TV ABC 6 NAMPA Texas leads in firefighter suicides; Dallas Fire-Rescue's new mental wellness program already proving successful Dallas Fire-Rescue officials say a relatively new program aimed at addressing mental health wellness within their ranks is already proving to be successful. The program was rolled out a little over a year ago, following a trend of suicides and suicide attempts not just within DFR, but within fire departments across the country. "Since 2018, we've had four suicides, and two attempted suicides...so, we are trying to be as proactive as possible," Executive Assistant Fire Chief Brett Stidham said. The National Fallen Firefighters Foundation began tracking firefighter suicides this year and at the time of this publishing, they've reported a total of eight firefighter suicides across the country. Texas leads the list with three. DFR's mental health wellness program counts on a multi-pronged approach that offers help to firefighters and the families who need it. KTVT-TV CBS 11 FORT WORTH FASNY sounds alarm as New York leads in fire deaths A recent house fire in the Capital Region added four more people to the state's residential fire death toll for 2023. According to a press release from the Firefighters Association of the State of New York (FASNY), in 2017, 2018, and 2019, New York led the nation in fire deaths. The state is presently on track for the same mention in 2023. Earlier this year, FASNY cautioned that New York was again poised to lead the nation in fire fatalities, with 45 residential fire deaths reported as of March 14. This week that number climbed to 98 – almost double the number of home fire deaths in the next leading states of Texas and Ohio (59), Pennsylvania (57), and California (55). Destructive and deadly house fires have occurred not only in the dense neighborhoods of New York City but also on Long Island, Buffalo, the Hudson Valley, the Adirondacks, the North Country, and other communities around the state where volunteer firefighters provide the vast majority of response.
