KPTV FOX 12 PORTLAND College graduate highlights Maine first responders in 'Pride In Duty' photography exhibit VIDEO: A recent Colby College graduate, who is also a firefighter, highlighted Waterville Fire and Rescue in her senior art exhibit. You may have heard the adage, "A picture is worth a thousand words." Studio art major Morgan Cheney embodied this by capturing the day-to-day of first responders at Waterville Fire and Rescue. "This exhibit is actually called 'Pride In Duty.' That is the mission statement of the Waterville Fire Department," Cheney said. Cheney used a Sony digital camera and her dad's film camera, which he used when he was in college, for her capstone project which was on display at the Paul J. Schupf Art Center. "I'm in the fire department, but I'm also a photographer," Cheney said. "I think I had a very special role in that I can capture the relationships that I have with those people through the camera and sort of create a more raw feeling to the pictures and sort of give that connection to the viewer." WCSH-TV NBC 6 PORTLAND Connecticut TikToker goes viral for hapless kitchen fire reaction, hopes 'people can learn' from her mistake VIDEO/PHOTOS: A Connecticut TikToker is going viral after posting a video showing her tripping over her couch while trying to escape an out-of-control kitchen fire. The footage shared on an account operated in part by LaTeasha Brost, which now has 6 million views, was captured by a pet camera in her apartment's living room. "Fire! Babe, we have a fire!" Brost is first heard telling her wife in the clip as a cooking pan bursts into flames. "Babe, what [do] I do?" "I don't know, go outside," she responds. Brost then tries to douse the flames in the kitchen sink – but it makes the fire worse. The video ends with Brost running toward an exit and dropping the flaming pan, but she falls to the ground after tripping over her couch. The fire eventually went out after the pan hit the floor.
