VIDEO: Firefighter injured after blaze torches stacked pallets, vehicles, trucks and trailers in California PHOTOS: A firefighter was injured while putting out a massive pallet yard fire in San Bernardino County, authorities said. According to the San Bernardino County Fire Department, firefighters were dispatched to the 15000 block of Whittram Avenue in Fontana around 8:15 p.m. Saturday. When they got to the scene, crews observed a "stacked pallet yard well-involved with fire," officials said. The blaze was ultimately escalated to a four-alarm fire, eliciting a response from surrounding agencies. "Upon arrival of additional resources, it was found that about a quarter-acre of stacked pallets, vehicles, trucks and trailers were burning," the San Bernardino County Fire Department said in a statement. "Additionally, three power poles were involved in the fire, which required Edison to handle the hazard as suppression efforts were being initiated." KTLA-TV CW 5 LOS ANGELES FDNY Commissioner Laura Kavanagh to step down, help find replacement The head of the New York City Fire Department has notified Mayor Eric Adams that she intends to step down from her post in order to explore other career opportunities, officials familiar with the commissioner's plans told News 4. "My dedication to the FDNY has never and will never waver. It has been the honor of a lifetime to devote the last 10 years — five as first deputy commissioner and more than two as commissioner — to advocating for the men and women of the FDNY," Commissioner Laura Kavanagh said in a statement. Kavanagh has served as the commissioner for the city's fire department for nearly two years, after serving as the acting commissioner following the retirement of Daniel Nigro in Feb. 2022. She has been the first female commissioner in the department's 159-year history. WNBC-TV NBC 4 NEW YORK CITY 2 fire tanker trucks heading to large Pennsylvania warehouse blaze crash, injuring 7 firefighters PHOTOS: Authorities say seven firefighters were injured when two tanker trucks crashed while responding to a large blaze in York, Pennsylvania.

The York New Salem Volunteer Fire Company said in a post on its Facebook page that five members sustained injuries ranging from "some minor bumps and bruises to some being a little more serious" — but none of the injuries were life-threatening. Chief David Rittenhouse of the Laurel Fire Company No. 1 of Windsor said both firefighters staffing its tanker were taken to WellSpan York Hospital for evaluation, but had been discharged by 1 a.m. Saturday.
