Three dogs rescued from fire in North Peoria An early morning fire at a North Peoria home caused $100,000 in damage, according to city's firefighters. The call came in at about 12:51 a.m. Friday and crews were dispatched to the 500 block of West Sheridan Court on a report of a fire at a duplex. That's across Knoxville Avenue from Keller Primary School. Residents were already leaving the building, which showed smoke and flames when the firefighters started to arrive. Three dogs were rescued by firefighters and returned to their owner. No one else was found inside. The fire was quickly put out. No injuries were reported for either residents or firefighters, according to the department. An investigator ruled the fire to be accidental in nature and said the damage to the building and to the contents inside was close to $100,000 in value.

VIDEOS: FedEx tractor-trailer removed from bridge in New York hours after going over railing Crews worked throughout the day Thursday to get a FedEx tractor trailer off I-90 and onto the road below, after a crash in the morning sent the truck over the railing on a bridge, barely hanging on above Pittsford Mendon Center Road. The truck was removed from I-90, the state Thruway, shortly before 5 p.m. New York State Police say it happened around 8:50 p.m. when the truck driver sideswiped a disabled vehicle and flipped over the bridge guiderail. Its two trailers fell down below onto Pittsford Mendon Center Road. Three adults and an infant were inside the disabled vehicle and were taken to Strong Memorial Hospital with minor injuries. Crews say the driver of the FedEx truck also has minor injuries. The front part of the truck was demolished by the guiderail, but the cab, also called the driver's seat portion, is mostly fine. WHEC-TV NBC 10 ROCHESTER Arizona firefighters help driver after he almost ran them over while they played pickleball VIDEO: Some Tempe firefighters who were enjoying a pickleball game between calls Tuesday had to abruptly end their break when a car almost ran them over in their station's parking lot. The first responders quickly shifted from play to work mode to take care of the driver after he crashed into parked vehicles. The incident at Tempe Fire Medical Rescue Station 3, on McClintock Drive south of Baseline Road, was captured on surveillance video. The footage shows four firefighters playing pickleball on a court set up in the parking lot. Between points in the game, a car suddenly appears in the background heading toward the players. The firefighters can be seen scattering as the car mows down one of the two pickleball nets set up in the lot and slams into three parked vehicles, just a few feet from where the game was happening moments earlier. KTAR-FM 92.3 GLENDALE Florida fire department introduces unique 107-foot ladder truck VIDEO: Fort Myers Firefighter Sean McNamara said they're getting used to a special truck that can attack difficult situations unlike any in their fleet. It's been about 100 years since they had to use a truck like this, but this one is modern. "This truck is a 107-foot straight stick ladder, it is different from our other ladder trucks," McNamara said. "Our trucks now are rear-mounted ladders and this is a mid-mount ladder. It basically means that it has different functions and can {be} placed differently than a rear-mount ladder." That's not the only unique feature of the truck, there is a driver at the front and the back of the truck to navigate turns. Ray Rodriguez, the captain paramedic, said that allows them to move in tight areas which is a huge plus. WBBH-TV NBC 20 FORT MYERS Wisconsin firefighters compete for $1 million on 'The Amazing Race' VIDEO: Two first responders from southeast Wisconsin are competing on the 36th season of "The Amazing Race." Sunny Pulver and Bizzy Smith are best friends and firefighters. Pulver works for the Madison Fire Department and Smith works for the New Berlin Fire Department. The two quickly became best friends while receiving their training and are now ready to race into a new challenge. The dynamic duo joined CBS 58's Alex Corradetti in studio to discuss their time on "The Amazing Race." Pulver and Smith started the process by creating an audition video. "It was all Bizzy's idea of course. She was like, 'Do you want to do this with me? Do you want to be on TV?' I was like, of course I do," said Pulver. The ladies were away from their loved ones for 30 days, without phones or access to social media. WDJT-TV CBS 58 MILWAUKEE PREVIOUS NATIONAL NEWS |
