| Kotzebue man remains missing nearly a week after restaurant fire A Kotzebue man who was thought to be in the Bayside Inn and Restaurant when it caught fire last week is still considered missing, the fire department said. The restaurant and inn caught fire early last Thursday. The fire department was called to the area just before 5:30 a.m. and the first crew was on scene within six minutes, said Kotzebue Fire Chief Kelly Marcus. Smoke and flames were pouring from the building when they arrived, he said. Marcus said cellphone service was down throughout much of the town because of severe weather, so several police officers left the scene to retrieve firefighters from their homes. The flames quickly spread throughout the structure as firefighters battled 33 to 47 mph winds with gusts up to 60 mph on Thursday, Marcus said. Four people made it out of the building, and one was taken to the hospital for non-life-threatening injuries, according to Marcus. An online fundraiser for the restaurant said one of the owners ran into the building to help two others out. ANCHORAGE DAILY NEWS - METERED SITE PREVIOUS STATE NEWS |

| Florida Firefighter Finds Wife Died in House Fire After Responding to Call VIDEO: The wife of a South Florida firefighter died after a fire broke out in their Homestead home Tuesday afternoon, fire officials confirmed Wednesday morning. A GoFundMe created for the firefighter identifies him as Corey Logan. It states Logan has been with Miami-Dade Fire Rescue for over 20 years. On the day of the fatal fire, the organizer of the fundraiser says he and Logan were working an overtime shift when Logan received a Ring notification. The surveillance video showed a neighbor frantically banging on his door. Both men were on the way to Logan's house when reports of a house fire at Logan's address came over the dispatch radio. The body of the firefighter's wife was found by Miami-Dade Fire Rescue crews after extinguishing the flames which ravaged their home, located in the 1200 block of Northwest 18th Street. WTVJ NBC 6 MIAMI FDNY EMTS, medics and firefighters getting new heavy duty masks to fight COVID The FDNY will be ditching its disposable protective coronavirus masks for reusable ones, officials said Tuesday. New elastomeric respirator masks will be distributed to Emergency Medical Service members and firefighters in the weeks to come, Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro said. "This is a substantial piece of equipment, but it will take us out of the supply chain for N95 masks that the whole world uses," Nigro told the Daily News. "The N95 mask is a key piece of protection against the coronavirus, but these masks offer the same protection and there is a great benefit of it being reusable since we will be using them on every call." Emergency medical technicians and paramedics could be sporting the new masks — which look like something a member of a Hazmat team or an industrial painter wound wear — by the end of the week, officials said. FDNY members will still have a supply of N95 masks available to them as a backup. NEW YORK DAILY NEWS - METERED SITE Crews use state of the art technology to help put out Connecticut fire VIDEO: Crews responded to what they described as a stubborn fire at an abandoned building in New Haven. Officials said the fire broke out Thursday morning on the 200 block of Winthrop Avenue. The call originally came in around 3 a.m. as a brush fire. First responders arrived and found flames in one of the buildings. The fire was brought under control. One of the challenges that was presented to crews Thursday morning was water. They had to run about 700 feet of hose to get to it. The weather also caused an issue, because the fire chief said the smoke wasn't lifting, which made it dangerous for firefighters. The building was boarded up, which made ventilation a problem. Fire crews used some new technology that helped them in the fight. They had computers at their on-site command station that were hooked up to cameras down at the scene so they can see everything that happened. WFSB-TV CBS 3 HARTFORD 3 First Responders Hit While Responding To Serious Motorcycle Crash In Maryland Three first responders were hit while responding to a crash in Frederick County that left a motorcyclist with life-threatening injuries, the Frederick County Division of Fire and Rescue Services said Tuesday. First responders were called to the scene of a crash involving a motorcycle in the 12900 block of Stottlemyer Road near Wolfsville just after 4:30 p.m. As they were treating the victim, a second motorcyclist hit a fire engine, ejecting the rider, 19-year-old Wyatt Walker Lewis of Smithsburg. The motorcycle then slid into three first responders and two other bystanders helping at the scene. One of the first responders was flown to Shock Trauma in stable condition, while a second was taken to Meritus Medical Center with minor injuries and later released. The third refused medical treatment. WJZ-TV CBS 13 BALTIMORE North Dakota lets healthcare workers with COVID stay on job as record surge strains hospitals As hospitals in the state reach capacity and face dire staff shortages, North Dakota will now allow healthcare workers who have tested positive for COVID-19 to continue working in coronavirus units, officials announced this week. Hospital administrators have asked for the extraordinary action to be taken, Governor Doug Burgum said at a Monday press conference, and interim State Health Officer Dirk Wilke amended an order to allow the new measure to take effect. Now, North Dakota healthcare workers are permitted to continue treating COVID-19 patients, even if they've tested positive for the virus themselves. "This applies only to COVID-positive healthcare workers who do not have symptoms and they are allowed only to work COVID units around patients who already have the virus," Burgum said.
