environments experienced by firefighters

was evaluted. Training in live fire

environments where we can make a

variety of scenarios is vital to

quality of fire and flow paths of smoke to

see both the positive and adverse effects

of their actions in a safe setting.

SEPTEMBER

September 5, 2100 100th Street: A

shooting was reported at 7-Flags Events

Center. Crews arrived to find a chaotic

scene. Two victims

were identified and

a third victim was

deceased. Due to

severity of injuries

and an unstable

remained on scene throughout the night

to assist police with lighting for their

investigation.

September 13, 2065 NW 129th Street:

E220 responded on a smoke

investigation. The homeowner indicated

a tree in the backyard took a lightning

strike over night and now they could

smell smoke in the mechanical room in

the basement. Some outlets in the

basement were found to be scorched.

The yard was checked, and several holes

were blown into the sod. No active or

smoldering fire was found and the

homeowner was encouraged to contact

an electrician.

September 27, 1725 NW 86th Street:

Ladder 325 responded to Kum and Go

for a vehicle on fire at the gas pumps.

They arrived to find a small flame coming

from the gasoline fill port. The fire was

quickly extinguished with a dry chemical

extinguisher. A disposable lighter was

discovered right below the point of the

fire on the ground. It was later

determined by watching surveillance

camera footage from Kum and Go that

the son intentionally lit the car on fire.

funded a number of

facility improvements,

54th Annual Santa Day: December 17th

marked this annual tradition. Seven

Santa Stops were held throughout the

community. Temperatures and winds

were from the North Pole, causing a much

smaller turnout than normal.

Rapid Intervention Training: Scenarios at

an acquired structure on Emerald Isle

incorporated RIC skills. They were applied

to multiple FF rescues within a set time

period. Clive and Urbandale crews had

“downed firefighters”. Obstacles were set
