KXAN-TV NBC 36 AUSTIN Fireworks sales begin in Texas; Bexar County Fire Marshal's office promotes safe disposal campaign Fireworks can be legally sold in Texas starting Monday, kicking off celebrations for the Fourth of July. However, the Bexar County Fire Marshal's office wants to remind residents of the importance of safe fireworks disposal to prevent accidents and property damage. Last year alone, Bexar County received 49 firework-related emergency calls, resulting in over $200,000 in damages. To address this concern, the Fire Marshal's office is launching their "Designate a Douser Campaign." As part of this campaign, firefighters will be demonstrating the proper way to extinguish fireworks before throwing them away. This will help residents dispose of fireworks safely and reduce the risk of fires. WOAI-TV NBC/CW 4 SAN ANTONIO PREVIOUS STATE NEWS |

| Body camera video shows New Jersey police officer's heroic actions as he saves couple from house fire VIDEO: An Evesham police officer was commended for his bravery as a house fire hero after he rescued a couple from a blaze on June 16. Evesham Police Chief Walt Miller detailed the events leading up to the rescue in a news release where he applauded the swift work of Officer Kevin Long, Evesham Fire-Rescue Quint 2235 and other emergency responders. Long was the first person to arrive at the fire on the 1800 block of Sagemore Drive after the department received an emergency call at around 4 p.m. The department released Long's body camera footage showing the severity of the fire and the panic he and the residents faced as deep clouds of smog engulfed the home. "I've got smoky conditions, smoky conditions," Long can be heard saying while running up to the home, which had five adjoining apartment units attached. KYW-TV CBS 3 PHILADELPHIA ‘Demoralizing': Firefighters' vehicles damaged during Celtics parade in Boston VIDEO: On a day the city came together to celebrate, Boston firefighters who work at the Back Bay station found little to cheer about after their cars were damaged and vandalized at Friday's Celtics parade. "Pretty demoralizing and just frustrating and disappointing," said Sam Dillon, president of Boston Firefighters Local 718. "They worked the parade all day, they get back to the fire house and they found their personal vehicles had been damaged and vandalized." Photos taken by the union show dozens of fans standing and sitting on these vehicles while the parade passed by on Friday. Other pictures show those same vehicles with damage to their hoods, roofs buckled in, and in one case, an apparent apology left on one vehicle. "If you are truly sorry, reach out, make this right, and everyone can go their separate ways," Dillon said. NECN Everyday Heroes: Central Pennsylvania fire departments launch recruitment campaign VIDEO: To help address the critical shortage of volunteer firefighters, Clearfield, Cambria and Indiana County fire departments are teaming up to launch a campaign.
