A dramatic rescue came to an end after LAFD firefighters were able to rope in a dog that was stuck in a swollen Los Angeles River. The dog’s owner had been rescued, along with a bystander who jumped in the swift water to try and get the dog. After floating in the water, and sometimes walking along an embankment as people watched along the river, the dog was pulled to safety in the Studio City area. https://ktla.com/news/local-news/crews-work-to-rescue-dog-from-l-a-river-after-saving-woman/ | KTL

Day in the Life: #LAFD Task Force 5 is conducting critical training at a vacant apartment in Westchester. Training in real-world environments like this ensures our firefighters are always prepared to respond swiftly and safely to emergencies. We are so grateful for their dedication and the hard work they put in daily to keep our communities safe! #firefightertraining #firefighterlife #firetruck #firetrucksofamerica #firetrucksdaily | Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation

Repost from @lafdists . The LAFD and the City of Los Angeles just became a little safer. Through the collaboration and support of the Fire Foundation, we were able to purchase 237 FLIR K65 Thermal Imaging Cameras. These cameras will enhance firefighter safety, improve search and rescue operations, and increase our effectiveness on the fireground. Thank you to everyone who contributed their efforts in training and helped make this program a reality. #trainasifyourlifedependsonitbecauseitdoes #laf
