One of the two climbers trapped since Tuesday near Denali's summit was rescued alive by a helicopter crew early Friday. The other died in a snow cave while waiting for help, according to park officials. The rescue at 19,600 feet took place at about 7 a.m., according to a statement from Denali National Park and Preserve staff. Clouds and high winds that had grounded flights near the mountain's peak relented Thursday night, allowing the park's high-altitude helicopter to drop a duffel bag of supplies near the snow cave in which the hypothermic climbers had taken shelter. "The pilot observed one climber waving at him at the time of the air drop; however, winds were still too strong to safely conduct a short-haul basket extraction," park officials said in the statement.

 A devastating seven-alarm fire in Paterson, New Jersey left families homeless and businesses destroyed Sunday morning. Residents said the fire at 195 Broadway started around midnight, but firefighters continued dousing the building with water well after the sun came up. Officials said the fire was severe and difficult to contain, and help was requested from several firefighting units across the area. "I was showering. I heard someone yelling, screaming, 'There's a fire! Call 911! We need water!'" a frightened neighbor told CBS New York. "I panicked, I let my kids know and we just ran out of there and left everything behind. We just lost everything, tried to start over, and it's like we lost everything again." The roof collapsed and tore down the second floor, leaving the building completely destroyed. WCBS-TV CBS 2 NEW YORK CITY VIDEO: When you call 911 in Lexington, there's a good chance you'll get some of the best first responders in the world coming to your rescue. Firefighter Sarah McGill is one of them. McGill won the women's division in a worldwide competition hosted in Saudi Arabia called "The Toughest Firefighter Alive. In the video, WKYT's Jeremy Tombs and Photojournalist Darnell Crenshaw have McGill's story and how this Kentucky woman hopes her feat will inspire the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to hire more women firefighters. WKYT-TV CBS/CW 27 LEXINGTON A man tried to help himself to a fire department's fuel supply last week. According to the Needham Community Fire Department, a pickup truck showed up at Station 81 (6822 E 350 N) at 5:13 a.m. on Thursday, May 30. The driver got out and tried to steal fuel from the fire station. "This individual decided to attempt to help himself to our mission critical fuel supply which we utilize for our fire trucks ensuring we can respond to your emergency when you need us," the department wrote on Facebook. The department clarified that the man was unable to get any fuel; a secondary locking mechanism prevented him from doing so. Fire personnel were not onsite and were instead at Station 82, the department noted. WXIN-TV FOX 59 INDIANAPOLIS |
