YOUR ALASKA LINK Alaska Air National Guard crews rescue 3 during Easter weekend Three people in remote parts of the state were assisted by the Alaska Air National Guard last weekend. On March 30, staff at Bethel's Yukon-Kuskokwim Health Corporation requested the assistance of the 176th Rescue Wing to transport a man who had suffered a stroke after civil air ambulances were unable to assist due to weather conditions. The Alaska Rescue Coordination Center (AKRCC) dispatched one of the 211th Rescue Squadron's HC-130J Combat King II aircraft with the callsign "King" carrying pararescuemen from the 212th Rescue Squadron, who picked up the patient and took him to Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson. He was then taken by ambulance to a local hospital. Not long after, another call came in for assistance, this time from the village of Ruby on the Yukon River.

| VIDEO: Dramatic fire erupts at commercial building in downtown Los Angeles Fashion District A dramatic and stubborn fire erupted at a commercial building in downtown Los Angeles, prompting an early morning response from firefighters. The blaze began shortly before 5:30 a.m. at a single-story structure in the 1400 block of South Main Street. Firefighters arrived at the scene and were initially in defensive mode as massive flames and smoke emanated from the roof of the building, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department. Although firefighters seemed to have taken control of the incident by 6 a.m., flames were still visible in video from AIR7 HD. No injuries were immediately reported. The cause of the fire was unknown. KABC-TV ABC 7 LOS ANGELES Volunteer fire department in Pennsylvania launches reimbursement program VIDEO: Most volunteer firefighters have a full-time job that doesn't involve putting out fires. But when a call comes in, they step away from work to respond. Now, a newly established program with the Southmont Volunteer Fire Company will reimburse them for every incident they respond to. "So volunteers are unpaid, of course. The purpose of a reimbursement program like one that we've established is to offer an additional incentive to volunteers for recruitment, but also repayment purposes," said Edward Burkett, Deputy Chief of the department. Burkett developed the program based on what other departments in the Commonwealth have. It took nine months to launch it for Southmont, but the firefighter reimbursement program was officially launched April 1. WTAJ-TV CBS 10 ALTOONA Traffic deaths topped 40,000 last year as NHTSA looks to reduce distracted driving More than 40,000 people were killed last year in traffic crashes, according to preliminary data released Monday, remaining above pre-pandemic levels but slightly down from their peak in 2021. The new data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration adds to concerns that little is being done to address one of the most common causes of preventable deaths. Traffic deaths spiked in 2020 and again in 2021 and have since declined slightly. Still,they are up 25% since 2013, and the Governors Highway Safety Association found that pedestrian deaths reached a 40-year high in the United States in 2022. The NHTSA said that "distracted driving," an issue that has grown in urgency with the ubiquity of smartphones, resulted in 3,308 deaths and 289,310 injuries in 2022, and 3,522 deaths in 2021.
