Firefighters successfully contain 30% of the Ridgetop Fire north of Healy Hand crews continued to make good progress towards containment on the Ridgetop Fire on Wednesday as they continue to mop up and patrol the fire perimeter for hot spots while being supported by fire engines and helicopters. Engines crews will continue to provide structure support while hand crews utilize pumps and hose lays to supply water to areas of the fire that need to be cooled off to ensure the fire is contained within the perimeter as they work towards increasing containment over the next few days. As more progress is made towards full containment, crews will begin to be released back to their home stations to prepare for other incidents around the state. Helicopters and fixed wing aircraft will continue to support the firefighters on the ground and will be visible to the public traveling along the Parks Highway.

VIDEO: Fiery cement tanker explodes near US 75 in north-central Texas Video of a cement tanker engulfed in flames near U.S. 75 in Richardson showed the vehicle explode. The cement tanker was near the intersection of East Collins Boulevard and North Glennville Road. The Richardson Fire Department told WFAA the boom on a cement tanker hit a power line, which caused it to catch fire. As the tanker was set ablaze, chopper video showed it explode. Richardson Fire said the downed power line caused outages in the area, and Oncor was notified and responding to affected customers. Oncor told WFAA that approximately 1,200 customers were affected and there was no official estimated restoration time available. The downed power line shut down all traffic at East Collins Boulevard and North Glennville Road. Richardson FD said crews needed to wait for the power line to be shut off before starting to put out the fire.

Nikola Jokic, number 15, will be on a rig from Station 15. Jamal Murray, number 27, will be on a rig from Station 27. Station 35 doesn't know who they will be assigned, but the crew is excited. "Generally, it's our job to just take care of them, make sure they are hydrated and just make sure they have a good time," Capt. Matt Berry said. Engineer Vaughn Henderson will drive the engine. "I was working that night when they won, in my room yelling and screaming for the Nuggets, so for me to be a part of this, to be a part of history, is really exciting for me," he said. So many people at the firehouse wanted to participate, they played a dice game to pick the lucky winners. KDVR-TV FOX 31 DENVER Inside Virginia's World-Class Urban Search and Rescue Team PHOTOS: Jeff Lewis was a freshman at George Mason University in 1986 when a moment of helplessness led him to his life's calling. Driving home from class, he was one of the first to stop at the scene of a car accident where he found four seriously injured teenagers. Two boys had been ejected, and two girls remained belted inside the vehicle. "I just stood there frozen, with no idea what to do. Nothing. At that moment, I reexamined my entire life," says Lewis. Another car also stopped, from which a uniformed Boy Scout and his father immediately sprang into action and applied first aid. "Here I was, a college student with no particular direction in life, completely shown up by a 12-year-old," says Lewis. "Then the local fire department arrived, and within minutes they turned chaos into order and got all of the patients to definitive medical care." NORTHERN VIRGINIA MAGAZINE How long will it take to repair Philadelphia's I-95? A look at bridge collapses in US history VIDEO: Commuters in Philadelphia and commercial truckers alike are bracing for what could be months of traffic disruptions due to the destruction of a section of Interstate 95, a critical artery for regional transportation. An elevated section of I-95 collapsed Sunday after a tanker truck carrying 8,500 gallons of gasoline flipped over on an off-ramp and caught fire, igniting a blaze that caused the northbound lanes to collapse and severely damaging the southbound lanes. Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro issued a disaster declaration on Monday to expedite repairs. Meanwhile, alternative routes have made commutes much longer for hundreds of thousands of drivers and will likely raise shipping costs as truckers are forced to take lengthy detours.
