| Roof collapse in Anchorage makes at least 19 since last winter VIDEO: Two structural collapses on Sunday that left no injuries continued a concerning trend of older commercial structures in Anchorage buckling under the weight of heavy and deep snow. According to the Anchorage Fire Department, the collapses occurred just miles apart across the Seward Highway from each other: the first Sunday morning near West International Airport Road and Laona Drive — which was described as minor — and the second near East Dowling Road and Quinhagak Street, causing more substantial damage. The second one was reported to AFD Sunday night by occupants of the building. Capt. Patrick Barnes with the fire department said no one was injured because they weren't in the part of the building that collapsed. KTUU-TV NBC 2 ANCHORAGE PREVIOUS STATE NEWS |

| VIDEO: 4-alarm fire burns warehouse in Missouri Fire crews worked to contain a four-alarm warehouse fire Saturday morning. Eighty-five firefighters were called to the scene of the five-story building that partially collapsed. The building was vacant at the time of the fire. "This is one of those where we surround the structure, and basically, I don't want to say surround and drown, but that's essentially what it is," said Garon Mosby, a St. Louis Fire Department captain. "Large amounts of water from the exterior—not committing resources inside." The fire started before 6 a.m. at First and O'Fallon streets in downtown St. Louis. Mosby said it's unclear what started it. "It was just a tremendous amount of fire—I'll say for 6 o'clock in the morning for the fire to be that far ahead of us—so that we can't go in. So, that's concerning, but nothing on the cause right now," he said. KSDK-TV NBC 5 ST. LOUIS Handmade table presented in honor of fallen Illinois firefighter VIDEO: It's been 41 years since Peoria firefighter Vernon "Butch" Gudat died in the line of duty, but Friday, the department and his family members celebrated his legacy. John Smith worked for the Peoria Fire Department for 29 years. After he retired, he picked up woodworking. Smith's hobby of building tables started when Peoria Fire Chief Shawn Sollberger asked Smith to build a table for the new firehouse, Station 4. Smith has finished several tables since then, the most recent being a dinner table for Fire Station 10 in honor of Gudat. "I knew right away that the table I built for Station 10 was going to incorporate some kind of memorial for Capt. Gudat," Smith said. Station 10 is where Gudat was working when he responded to a fire in downtown Peoria on January 23, 1983. He died that morning in the line of duty. WEEK-TV NBC/ABC/CW+ 25 PEORIA VIDEO: Fire truck overturns in Georgia, 4 firefighters onboard PHOTO: Surveillance video captured the moment an Albany fire truck overturned on Friday. The fire truck overturned on South Harding Street Friday afternoon. Crews worked over an hour to get it back turned over and cleaned up. "I heard a big old boom. That's it. I just can't even believe it," said Angel Caldwell, a witness. Officials said four firefighters were in the truck at the time of the accident. No serious injuries have been reported and all four firefighters were taken to the hospital to get checked out. Some people said they were shocked to see the aftermath of the accident. "I can't even imagine how a firetruck can even be turned over. I mean, do you see the way it is? I mean who's ever in their lifetime seen a firetruck upside down like that? It's really scary and heartbreaking," another witness said. WALB-TV NBC/ABC 10 ALBANY High School BUFF Program In Wisconsin Takes Students From Ideas To Action The Howard and Suamico Fire Departments, in tandem with Northeast Wisconsin Technical College (NWTC), are helping to empower young students to become firefighters through the high school program, Building Up Future Firefighters (BUFF). The Suamico Fire Department first attended the Bay Port High School career fair two years ago with little hopes of finding many students willing to participate in a firefighting internship. However, the opposite proved to be true. "The interest that we had was alarming," said Suamico Fire Department Fire Chief Joe Bertler. After realizing their success at the career fair, the fire department applied for a grant that would allow students to complete a "Firefighter 1" certification program at Bay Port.
