Last night while you were sleeping, C-Crew responded to the 500 block of South Main St. for a reported building fire. First arriving units found heavy fire in the rear of the structure. Crews made an aggressive initial attack and knocked the fire down. Units remained on scene performing overhaul and searching for hot spots. No injuries have been reported at this time, cause of the fire remains under investigation.

As always, thank you to our mutual aid partners for the assistance.

At Brewer Fire, we believe that learning never stops. Providing the highest level of service to our community starts with making sure our members are always growing, improving, and staying up to date with the latest training. Investing in our members means investing in the safety of our community; and that’s something we take seriously every single day.

Please join us in welcoming our two newest firefighters to Brewer Fire! FF/AEMT Kyle Bailey (L) and FF/EMT Nick White (R).

These two firefighters are filling newly created positions within our department to boost our crew staffing. This expansion marks a significant step in strengthening the department and improving the level of service provided to the Brewer community.

Both members have completed 84 hours of fire and EMS orientation. Starting next week, they will be integrated into their respective crews to continue their field training.

We express our gratitude to the City Manager and City Council for their unwavering support and commitment to increasing firefighter staffing and enhancing public safety for the city.
