| Fatal crash closes Seward Highway in Turnagain Pass for several hours A fatal crash shut down the Seward Highway in Turnagain Pass for hours late Monday night, according to Alaska State Troopers. Several units responded shortly after 10 p.m. to mile 67 of the Seward Highway, according to Girdwood Fire Department, for a crash involving a car and a motorhome. According to troopers, the collision left 46-year-old Jeffrey Andrews dead when the sedan he was riding in crossed the middle traffic line and hit the motorhome at a high rate of speed. Troopers said three others were injured and taken to an Anchorage hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The highway was partially closed for about 10 hours, troopers said, and was fully reopened at around 8:30 a.m. Tuesday morning. Troopers said no citations have been issued yet.

| VIDEO: Two Escape Burning Wreckage of Plane That Crashed on Freeway in California Two people escaped the burning wreckage of a small plane that crash-landed Tuesday afternoon on the 91 Freeway in Riverside County. The single-engine Piper PA-32 flying to Corona Municipal Airport went down at about midday on the eastbound 91 Freeway in Corona and might have struck at least one vehicle, according to the Corona Fire Department. Firefighters quickly extinguished the fire that erupted after the plane crash about 50 miles southeast of Los Angeles. Two occupants of the single-engine airplane escaped uninjured, City News Service reported, citing the Corona Fire Department. There were no reports of injuries to people on the ground. A pickup at the scene of the crash appeared to have sustained damage to a tail-light. KNSD-TV NBC 7 SAN DIEGO Paramedic among 2 killed when car hits first responders at South Carolina crash scene A Florence County paramedic and a motorcyclist she was treating at the scene of a crash were killed Tuesday night in a series of events that unfolded in the 2700 block of Pamplico Highway. Paramedic Sara Kinsy Weaver, 32, of Florence, and Cedric Antonio Gregg, 37, also of Florence, died after a vehicle crossed the median at a high rate of speed and hit several first responders who were working at the scene of the initial crash, Coroner Keith von Lutcken said. At least four people, including two law-enforcement officers, were among those who were hit by a car that drove into the crash scene, according to Florence County Emergency Medical Services, which posted about the incident on Facebook. Authorities also have not released any information about the driver of the vehicle that hit the first responders. WSPA-TV CBS 7 SPARTANBURG A Good Age: Massachusetts Fire Chief retires to ride across America on motorcycle On Tuesday, Aug. 16, Nord will head out on his KTM 890 Adventure R, an on and off-road motorcycle, for a trek across the country – down to Tennessee and North Carolina, then west to Oregon and back. He will follow the TransAmerica Trail, described as "the cross-country adventure ride of a lifetime with mostly off-pavement travel." Reaching Oregon will take about four weeks. Coming home, he'll travel by highways in a week. "I figure I have maybe 10 good years of riding left and now is go time," Nord said. "I want to get out and try some new things while I still can, and adventure riding is one of them." He said he has watched others retire and then have health problems cut short their dreams. When he returns, he plans to teach fire instruction and health and safety training courses in the region and the state. THE PATRIOT LEDGER - METERED SITE Taylor Mill memorial to tell story of volunteer fire departments in Kentucky PHOTOS: The entrance to Pride Park in Taylor Mill will soon be the home to a special monument honoring Firefighters from three different volunteer departments no longer in existence: Forest Hills, Winston Park and Taylor Mill. Most of the monument is ready. The last thing to go in will be the statue. "At one time, the fire departments were all volunteer, and gradually paid members were added," said Rita Hasler, who is the secretary for the Taylor Mill Volunteer Firefighter Association. "The Taylor Mill Volunteer Firefighter Association was formed to include members of Forest Hills, Winston Park, and Taylor Mill volunteer fire departments. Of course, now we have one fire department, and it is all paid." The yet-unfinished memorial, which Nancy Holian of Erlanger is creating, will have a background of a brick wall, with a special granite memorial for each department of volunteers. Surrounding the memorial will be brick pavers that can be purchased and engraved for a loved one or a group. LINK NKY PREVIOUS NATIONAL NEWS |
