On 6/6/24, just before 6pm, an employee of El Pollo Royo at 4616 S 4000 W called to report a fire. Crews responded, but the fire quickly spread into the strip mall's roof making it challenging to fight. Four businesses were destroyed. Others were damaged by smoke and water.

You may have seen some firefighters running around town over the weekend, but they weren’t chasing fires! They held a race to show some support for a fellow firefighter. Thanks to the police department for escorting them on their route and keeping them safe!

There was a false-alarm incident at Granger Elementary earlier this morning. A teacher in a classroom heard what they thought to be shots fired and contacted police - those loud noises were from a science experiment in another classroom.

Ever feel like the rug just got yanked out from under you? How about the whole floor? 😳 Welcome to recruit camp where prospective firefighters learn if they have what it takes — and learn the skills that could save their lives and yours.

Our crew’s 14 day mission to fight fires in Northern California has come to an end. Their last shift consisted of holding the fire line and protecting mountain cabins. Please join us in wishing this brave crew safe travels as they come back home to WVC!
