VIDEO/PHOTOS: On one of the hottest days of the year so far, firefighters were working Wednesday evening to extinguish a three-alarm fire at a sprawling apartment complex that sent plumes of flames and thick black smoke billowing into the air. Firefighters were called to the apartment complex, named Terra Apartments and located in the 35200 block of 21st Avenue SW, shortly before 4:30 p.m. for a call of a resident trapped in a burning apartment, South King Fire Capt. Brad Chaney said. A firefighter suffered heat exhaustion and had to be treated but no other injuries were reported from the blaze. Video from the scene showed firefighters rescuing at least one woman from an upper floor of the apartment building by escorting her down a fire truck ladder. Investigators said the woman was rescued shortly after the roof of the building had collapsed.

The city of Oakland has a new fire marshal, Felicia Bryant, who is making history as the first woman to ever hold the position. "I was born and raised in Oakland," she said. Bryant is an 18-year veteran of the department and a trailblazer, just like her great-grandfather, Bill Williams. He was one of the first Black firefighters hired by the Oakland Fire Department in 1920. There's even an oral history of Williams at the Oakland Museum archives. "Growing up, I was always inspired by that story and I was like, it's in my blood," said Bryant. Bryant started her career as a firefighter working at stations in east Oakland, and driving an engine. "One of the biggest joys I had when I was on the engine was seeing little girls. It was just a little girl to look up and be like, Wow, she's a woman firefighter she's a girl like me. And I get to give hope to people who don't think it's for them or who may feel like I can't achieve that," said Bryant.

PHOTOS: 2020 Indiana University Graduate Olivia Rusk was in Hidalgo Mexico earlier this year as an English Teaching Assistant for COMEXUS Fulbright-Garcia Robles. One day she was out exploring nearby towns. When she got off of a bus, she noticed an old fire truck sitting in a nearby parking lot. "My dad loves old vehicles so I went over to get some photos to send to him," she said. "When I got closer, I was shocked," continued Rusk. "The markings on the truck said ‘Hartford City Fire Department!" "How did a fire truck from Hartford City end up in a parking lot in a small town in Mexico, thousands of miles away," she thought. "I grew up in Fort Wayne. My dad now lives in Marion, and we're familiar with the area," explained Rusk. "I sent the photos to my father and he contacted former Hartford City Fire Chief, Ron Parrott."

VIDEO: You often hear how people get labeled by what they do for work, like "He's a police officer" or "a firefighter." For one emergency responder in Springville, that's harder to do. ABC4 News shares the different hats he wears, in this edition of Behind the Badge. Suiting up for work when you're Dakota Klauck of Springville, could easily mean three different things. Depending on the day, Klauck is a police officer, a firefighter, or an army combat medic. "People will joke with me sometimes how do you keep anything straight? I've got my schedule is all over the place," said Dakota Klauck, Springville emergency responder. Klauck serves as a Patrol Corporal for the Springville Police Dept., an advanced EMT Firefighter with Springville Fire, and an Army Combat Medic with the Utah National Guard 145th Field Artillery Unit.

First responders from around the area are honoring the 19 firefighters who sacrificed their lives over 60 years ago in the Shamrock McKee Refinery Explosion. The memorial service starts at 6:30 p.m. on July 29 at the Moore County Courthouse in Dumas. On July 29, 1956, 19 firefighters rushed into the flames to protect everyone in the Shamrock McKee Refinery Explosion in Moore County. This is the fourth largest firefighter loss of lives in the U.S. for a single fire incident involving industrial or structural fire protection. Dumas Fire Department, Sunray Fire Department and Valero Emergency Response Team will participate in the service.
