A 16-year-old boy was injured Tuesday night during a house fire in the Sunland-Tujunga area, authorities said. The fire was reported at around 9:16 p.m. at the home on Sherman Grove Avenue. When firefighters arrived, the fire was coming from the garage, exposing neighboring homes to flames. Firefighters found the boy outside with burns and injuries, the Los Angeles Fire Department said. An additional person, whose identity was not released, was rushed to the hospital in "fair condition," the fire department said. Firefighters were also alerted of reports stating propane tanks may have been inside the home, but it's unclear if anything was found. The majority of the fire damage to the home was to the attached garage and its attic. AIR7 HD captured smoke billowing from the building as firefighters worked to extinguish the flames.

Firefighter Jason Burns appreciates the attention that firefighting foam has received recently because long term exposure to it has been linked to cancer. However, he says he's rarely used firefighting foam in his nearly 20-year career. "I tend to focus on our gear because most fire departments aren't using foam on a regular basis, whereas I'm using my gear, firefighters are using our gear 10-14 times a tour, which is what we call our day of work," he said. Burns' "turnout gear" is the heavy, multilayered set of clothes that protects firefighters from heat, water and other liquids such as hot oils encountered while responding to an emergency. Several layers of the gear — usually the outermost layer and an inner moisture barrier — are coated with PFAS, which efficiently repels liquids while allowing for breathability.

VIDEO: Car fires are nothing new -- but electric car fires are different. Now, the Shelby Township Fire Department has a new tool that saves time -- when putting out the flames. The key is a giant fire blanket for the very specific type of fire. "These were bought specifically to help us in the event of an electric vehicle fire," said Lt. Robert Muylaert, Shelby Township Fire. As more EVs hit the road, fire departments must be prepared for the potential of things to go wrong. "We'd rather have something prepared in advance, than wait for the disaster to happen," he said. A typical car fire can be extinguished in minutes, but electric cars burn differently. "It can take four to five hours to extinguish a battery fire and after that, once it gets to a tow yard, they have had those fires reignite - even two to three days afterward," Muylaert said.

Updating Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in Idaho is no small task, but I was grateful for the opportunity to join my EMS colleagues to discuss the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for Idaho. EMS workers from throughout the state — as far away as Boundary County — traveled to Boise on Monday to help make a difference on behalf of the communities they serve. Paramedics, EMTs, air medical personnel, EMS and Fire department leadership, hospital staff, and many others joined me at the Idaho Statehouse. While their specific training and missions vary, they attended EMS Day for one purpose: to help educate lawmakers and Idaho residents about the challenges ahead. They explained that EMS services in Idaho are faced with population growth, a fragmented system of volunteers and paid staff, and Idaho's inherently rural character.
