 Forrest Kuiper, a fire chief with the University of Alaska Fairbanks, was eating breakfast at home on a Sunday morning when his cellphone buzzed. It was a notification from PulsePoint, a free smartphone application that sends alerts to people within a 1-mile radius of a potentially life-threatening emergency to recruit their assistance before paramedics arrive. Municipal emergency officials in Anchorage say they're planning to make the service available in the city by December. They're currently in a planning stage and choosing which application to use, according to Anchorage Fire Department assistant chief Bill Kays. The idea behind the app is that the sooner a person experiencing sudden cardiac arrest gets help — even if it's just a few minutes before emergency responders arrive — the more likely that person will survive. ANCHORAGE DAILY NEWS Alaska State Troopers and local law enforcement are searching for a Soldotna man who is considered "armed and dangerous," according to a trooper dispatch. Shortly before midnight Saturday, troopers were notified that a residence was fully engulfed in flames near Lourdes Avenue. Occupants of the residence were able to escape, according to an update from troopers. Officers say 62-year-old Ronald Beyering was seen leaving the property, and troopers have been granted an arrest warrant for Beyering. Troopers are advising the public not to approach Beyering, and that he is considered armed and dangerous. KTUU-TV NBC 2 ANCHORAGE Meg Thordarson from Capital City Fire and Rescue joined Angel Montgomery on Capital Chat Friday to talk about the Halloween festivities. Meg Thordarson gave information about the Haunted House. "Dates are October 21st, October 22nd, October 28th, and 29th. $5 to get in and we're really excited about doing it this year because we haven't done it for the last two years. It starts at 5:30 until 9:30 p.m." ... "This year we have the Coast Guard they're going to help us out. Some of their members are going to participate in the haunted house as well as they're going to set up a food tent. So they'll have hot chocolate and cider and popcorn and cotton candy available for sale." Thordarson noted that they leave the appropriate level age group up to parents, and it is a family event.

 Evansville and Henderson fire crews are on the scene of a business fire at the corner of East Franklin Street and Morton Ave. Firefighters say they saw smoke coming from the Morton Warehouse as they approached the building and were able to determine it was coming from the warehouse. Evansville police are also on the scene. EFD are calling the fire a "defensive fire," and are currently working to prevent further spread of the blaze. Since it's ignition around 5 a.m., the fire has spread to multiple nearby structures and a building has collapsed. The Department of Transportation has closed the Lloyd Expressway near 41 and it is advised that commuters avoid the area. WEHT-TV ABC 25 EVANSVILLE A recently retired firefighter is using social media to give people a front row seat to the local action. From car fires, truck fires, house fires, Albuquerque firefighters have seen it all. "Wildfires are a big thing here now, hazardous material calls, medical calls, the old fallen and I can't get up thing. No, we pick up grandmas and grandpas in the middle of the night pretty frequently," said Eric Knight a retired Albuquerque firefighter. Knight saw it all for more than two decades. He retired from the department last year, but is still part of the Albuquerque Retirees Association, and works with the local firefighters union. "I've lived here my whole life, so I've always wanted to work for Albuquerque," said Knight. And he's grown to love to document the work too. He's the face behind "afdfirewire" on Instagram. "Early in my career I was told to try and document it," said Knight. KOB-TV NBC 4 ALBUQUERQUE VIDEOS: A firefighter was among at least six people injured in a serious multi-vehicle crash on the Eisenhower Expressway on Sunday morning, Illinois State Police said. Illinois State Police said troopers responded to a hit-and-run crash at about 5:54 a.m. While they were on the scene, a silver Infiniti struck an ISP squad and a Chicago Fire Department truck at about 5:29 a.m. Shortly after, a silver Chevrolet Malibu struck a tow truck that responded to the crash scene. The firefighter was taken to Rush University Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries, authorities said. Five other people were transported to Mount Sinai and Stroger hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries. The fifth person was taken to an unknown hospital. WLS-TV ABC 7 CHICAGO Tampa Fire Rescue is hosting a donation drive to help those impacted by Hurricane Ian in Southwest Florida. The drive, which runs from Monday, Oct. 17, through Friday, Oct. 21., will be at multiple sites across Tampa on different days. "We've already sent down our first responders to support them as they recover from this disaster, but this donation drive is another big way for the city and community to give back," Tampa Fire Rescue Chief Barbara Tripp said. "We appreciate any new items the public can provide for victims of Hurricane Ian." Only new items will be accepted as donations. Some of the items Tampa Fire Rescue is asking for include baby formula, flashlights and toilet paper. WFTS-TV ABC 28 TAMPA |
