Two West Valley City firefighters were recognized at a West Valley City Council meeting July 10 2012. The recognition comes from their efforts in a rescue of a woman that was trapped by fire on the seconds floor of her home. Fire fighters Nate Hanson and Chad Burnside brought the woman down from the second story by placing a ground ladder to a window she was near, and then helping her to escape to safety. Credit goes to the entire crew which consisted of Captain Denver Rigby and Firefighter Todd Delnocce. The quick action of these four made the difference for everyone involved. Here is some footage from that night.
West Valley Fire would like to thank Liberty Mutual for the recognition, and to all those that worked this fire. This type of effort couldn't be done with out the help of other crews, police and all that respond. Once again congratulations to Nate and Chad and thanks to Denver and Todd. You all made a difference!
