| Massive recycling yard fire in Arizona triggers 'largest response' in fire department's history VIDEO/PHOTOS: Phoenix fire officials say a sixth alarm fire at a recycling yard near 35th Avenue and Buckeye prompted the largest response in the department's history on June 5. "I can't remember the last time we had a sixth alarm," said Phoenix Fire Captain Todd Keller. "We've had a couple two, three alarms in the last couple of months, but this is a big one." The fire was originally a first alarm early Saturday afternoon, but it quickly escalated, maxing out the alarm system and triggering the type of response that would normally only be seen with wildfires. Residents say that the smoke could be seen from as far as Mesa and Ahwatukee. Meanwhile, fire officials say 150 residential and commercial customers were without power for about 10 hours. KSAZ-TV FOX 10 PHOENIX Related YouTube Video: Large recycling yard fire burns in Phoenix New tech helps California firefighters navigate through burning buildings faster, safer Firefighters with the Menlo Park Fire Protection District have new technology that helps them navigate through burning buildings and find people twice as fast, according to the Fire Chief. The technology is called the C-Thru platform. It includes a navigation unit that attaches to the firefighter's helmet and allows them to clearly see objects in a burning building. Made by San Francisco based startup, Qwake Technologies, the C-Thru navigator uses thermal imaging technology to help firefighters identify objects in their path, retrace their steps to find exits and communicate with other firefighters. The Menlo Park Fire Protection District is the first in the nation to use the new technology. Fire Chief Harold Schapelhouman said they signed a contract on Friday to purchase units for each of their 40 front-line firefighters, for a total of $210,000.

The incident occurred Sunday afternoon at the intersection of Southwest Eighth Street and 42nd Avenue. Cellphone video shows a man dressed all in white striking the front windshield of a Miami-Dade Fire Rescue truck with a baseball bat, cracking the glass. It doesn't appear that anyone inside the fire truck was injured.

WPLG-TV ABC 10 MIAMI Young brothers raise money at lemonade stand to rent food truck for Ohio first responders VIDEO: A pair of pint-sized brothers in Brooklyn are making a big impact on their community. Gideon and Josiah Trank, ages eight and seven, have raised hundreds of dollars for first responders with their front yard lemonade stand. Friday, they rented the Cocky's Bagels food truck for the Brooklyn police and fire departments with their earnings. The truck parked outside of the police station between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. and served up bagel sandwiches and other treats with the brothers behind the counter taking orders. "We love our heroes," Gideon said. "We're doing this because they're probably hungry." That love for first responders was instilled in them by their parents, Machelle and Avery Trank.
