VIDEO: There is not much left of a Krispy Kreme Donuts that went up in flames in College Station early Monday morning, according to the College Station Police Department. A witness called in the explosion just before 2 a.m. at the donut shop on Harvey Road just southwest of Highway 6 and a few blocks from the Texas A&M University campus. Crews arrived to find debris in the roadway, which the chief said indicates some kind of explosion. KHOU 11 News is trying to find out if anyone was injured in this fire and what caused it. Police said Harvey Road was shut down from Rhett Butler to Scarlett O'Hara Drive. Motorists were asked to avoid the area.

The 100 Club of the Texas Panhandle has now surpassed $750,000 dollars in distributions to volunteer fire departments in the top 26 counties of the Texas Panhandle. Of the 52 agencies that worked the Texas Panhandle wildfires earlier this year, the 100 Club helped 48. The 100 Club stands behind the men and women that respond to emergencies everyday. "While first responders sometimes feel like it's a thankless job that doesn't get a lot of recognition, this has just been a perfect example to show people see them, they appreciate them, they respect them and they want to support them. And we've been on the receiving end of that support," said Suzanne Talley, executive director for the 100 Club of the Texas Panhandle.

A family was able to escape a destructive blaze that took down their home in Orono on Sunday. Three family members were inside the home when the fire began just before 7 p.m. All of them were able to safely escape the burning structure along with the family dog, an emergency responder on the scene told KARE 11. Long Lake Fire Chief Mike Heiland said it appears the blaze began in the garage of the home, but at this time a cause remains uncertain. The fire was massive - images from Sky 11 show flames lighting up the night sky for quite a distance. At least nine departments responded to the scene in Orono, but they were unable to save the home. It was reduced to rubble and is a total loss.

PHOTOS: Friday night's crash on Interstate 95 in the White Marsh area resulted in a brand new fire engine sustaining damage and eight members from Kingsville Volunteer Fire Company being injured. At around 9:00 p.m. on May 10, units responded to southbound I-95 in White Marsh for a reported medical emergency. Shortly after arriving on the scene, Kingsville VFC's new fire engine and another squad vehicle were both struck by another vehicle causing significant damage to both pieces of equipment. The crash resulted in two individuals in the other vehicle becoming trapped. The two patients were freed and the cause of the crash remains under investigation. Eight members of Kingsville VFC were taken to Shock Trauma. All members have since been released and are doing well, according to Kingsville VFC.

VIDEO: A 23-year-old Miami firefighter is grateful to be alive following a scary incident during a training exercise. Reece Blake was a recruit in a class, training to become a SWAT medic in Miami. SWAT medics respond to incidents involving police officers in moments of crisis. On March 5th, Reece was running from Lummus Park to Virginia Key as part of a training day when he collapsed and went into cardiac arrest. "The last thing I remember was running past Fire Station 4 in Brickell," Reece recalled Wednesday. Seven fellow Miami firefighters and 7 Miami Police officers rushed to provide lifesaving aid seconds after he collapsed. Miami Police Officer Pedro Julio Moreno was one of the first to jump into action. "I started doing compressions. You're supposed to do 30 compressions and two breaths. I was doing like 50 or 60 nonstop," Moreno said.

VIDEO: The Colorado Springs Fire Department is working to bring the responsibility of ambulance services to them, instead of relying primarily on private companies. This is something Fire Chief Randy Royal and Colorado Springs Mayor Yemi Mobolade have said has been in the works for a while. On social media, CSFD posted a statement from Chief Royal announcing that they will go before City Council on Monday to present their proposal. It is for an Emergency Services Enterprise that would bring the responsibility of ambulance transport services to the fire department. Mayor Mobolade has said before that Colorado Springs is one of very few cities of its size to not already have this system. He said the shift would create a system based around saving more lives, rather than making a profit, during a status update in April.
