| Kasaan home destroyed in fire A Kasaan family lost their home to a fire on Monday. No one was hurt in the blaze. The residents of the home – a mother, her two children, and 8 pets – managed to escape successfully. Village Public Safety Officer Zach West said they responded to the fire around 4 p.m. By the time they arrived, the fire had already spread under the floorboards and almost fully engulfed the home. "[The house was] right on the ocean, and we have a southeast wind that blows in that direction, basically right into that house. And so we had a reasonable amount of wind that pushed that fire pretty quick," said West. According to the VPSO, the cause of the fire hasn't been confirmed, but the resident said in a GoFundMe fundraiser that it started unexpectedly from a cigarette ember. KRBD-FM 105.3 KETCHIKAN BLM Alaska Fire Service Fire Update As of 2 p.m. Monday, there were 157 active wildfires statewide with two new starts in the past 24 hours.

| VIDEO: Behind Phoenix Fire Department's new 'firefighter with a sign' safety campaign The Phoenix Fire Department is hoping a new social media campaign will help keep residents and visitors safe around the Valley. You may have already seen their online posts featuring a firefighter with a big handlebar mustache holding up a sign that offers a public safety reminder. They're simple photos, but the messages are hugely important. ABC15 talked with the fire department about their new campaign and why they think it's a good way to reach more people in a way that sticks. KNXV-TV ABC 15 PHOENIX Missouri fire department crew comments on recent mine shaft rescue VIDEO: Emergency responders with the Kansas City Fire Department helped rescue two people from an abandoned mine shaft early Sunday morning. Authorities say they got the victims out in about 30 minutes. "The cave was pitch black," KCFD Fire Captain Chris Vandermillion said. "We were fortunate to have lights, ropes and that helped in finding them." The 30-year-old man and 22-year-old woman told authorities they went inside the cave around 11 p.m. Saturday after the Kenny Chesney concert. The victims became disoriented and were unable to find their way out. Just after 4 a.m., they found a spot with a cell signal to call 911, but they were far from the entrance. KCFD had two rescue teams on foot and one outside the cave on standby. WDAF-TV FOX 4 KANSAS CITY Firefighters in one Florida county rally for new contract, better starting pay VIDEO: Firefighters in Brevard County say they want a new contract. They and some of their supporters gathered outside the county's government center on Tuesday afternoon to raise awareness for their cause. Currently, the starting salary for firefighters in Brevard County is approximately $15 per hour. The President of the local firefighters union says there's plenty of competition for new recruits. Meanwhile, county officials are making an effort to attract and retain more firefighters. The new contract has been under negotiation since January. The current contract expires on September 30. "It's a calling, and they want to do their job," said Michael Bramsom, President of the Brevard County Professional Firefighters Union IAFF Local 2969. "Are we giving them the services, the knowledge, the equipment to do the job?" WFTV ABC 9 ORLANDO Idaho fire department, paramedics look at new method of responding to calls: ‘Safe & more efficient' If you've ever seen a fire truck respond to a medical emergency and wondered why, you're not alone. Ada County's emergency response system currently stitches together responses from several fire departments and the Ada County Paramedics to respond to calls for medical emergencies. These agencies have a one-size-fits-all approach to who can respond to calls – with everything from a sprained ankle to a car accident with multiple life-threatening injuries getting the same initial response. This is why a full-size fire truck with a paramedic on the crew might respond to your call for help even if no fire is in sight. Ada County Paramedics has different staffers with different levels of training too, with every ambulance going to every call manned by a more highly trained paramedic and an EMT.
