VIDEO: Farm in Ohio catches fire after several explosions Several explosions lead to a fire at the Timbuk Tree Farm in Licking County early Tuesday morning. Firefighters at the scene said explosions within one building happened at the farm located on the 2000 block of Timbuk Road in Granville around 2 a.m. Three buildings that have offices and products that were being shipped out are on fire, as well as the shipping area. Plastic and pallets in that area have all burned. Firefighters said the fire spans about the size of a football field. Greenhouses next to the buildings that caught fire have not yet been affected. No injuries have been reported. Several fire departments have been called to the scene. WBNS-TV CBS 10 COLUMBUS Tennessee firefighter DNA powers 9/11 research DNA from more than 200 Nashville firefighters was used to study the long-term health of 9/11 first responders at the World Trade Center. A new study featuring research from Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) used the samples to determine 9/11 first responders were more likely than their peers to have a genetic mutation that can cause blood cancers or cardiovascular disease. Why it matters: The study, published last week, harnessed the power of VUMC's massive DNA database that includes samples donated by some 300,000 unique patients. How it works: Patients who opt to participate in the database program, called BioVU, have DNA collected from leftover blood samples. Samples are de-identified and cannot be traced back to an individual person, although some of the anonymous patients' characteristics, including occupation, are logged to help researchers track trends. AXIOS NASHVILLE Former Red Sox pitcher graduates from Massachusetts Firefighting Academy A former Boston Red Sox pitcher who appeared in games during the club's run to a World Series victory in 2018 recently graduated from the Massachusetts Firefighting Academy, officials announced Monday. Justin Haley, who pitched in four games during that season, graduated from the academy on Feb. 28, according to West Newbury Fire Chief Michael Dwyer. "Firefighter Haley's commitment to his family helped lead him here, and he will be a great asset to our department and community here in West Newbury," Dwyer said. The 30-year-old California native who moved to Newburyport said that as his baseball career drew to a close he wanted to pursue work closer to the home he shares with his wife, son, and daughter. WHDH-TV ABC 7 BOSTON Pennsylvania firefighters donate gear to fellow first responders in war-torn Ukraine Equipment from Spring Mill Fire Company in Whitemarsh Township, Pennsylvania is on its way to help firefighters in Ukraine by way of North Jersey. "It's our way to give back in some fashion. Volunteer fire companies, they want to give back to the community in any way that we can, and maybe this is giving back more than just the local," said Chief Wayne Masters of Spring Mill Fire Company. Masters said their company typically has used, but still usable, gear that they donate to other companies in need. "A new set of turnout gear today costs about $4,000, so instead of disposing of it or anything like that, we like to help out in the community," said Masters. They haven't been able to donate for the last two years due to the pandemic so the company has more than normal. WPVI-TV ABC 6 PHILADELPHIA PREVIOUS NATIONAL NEWS |
