West Valley City Utah, January 30, 2102
A heavy equipment operator was critically injured when the bulldozer he was operating went off a 40' drop and rolled. The driver a 50 year old male was thrown from the vehicle as it rolled. The bulldozer ended upright, but a piece of the dozer detached and had the driver partially pinned. When fire fighters arrived they extricated the patient and stabilized him on scene. Air Med was called in to fly the patient to a trauma center. The patient was in very critical condition when he left the scene. Authorities from MSHA were en route to investigate the incident.

January 27, 2012 house fire
West Valley City Utah, firefighters made a great stop on this house fire. Crews arrived to smoke coming from the front of the residence, and fire venting from the rear of the house. an aggressive offensive attack quickly controlled the fire. Fortunately everyone got out safely. The culprit for this fire was an occupant that was smoking a cigarette and falling asleep.... never a good combination!
