It is with great sadness that North Metro Fire Rescue District announces the off-duty death of Lieutenant Chad Tellinger due to illness. Chad was hired by North Metro in 1998 and proudly served the community and organization for more than 27 years. He was 52 years old.

Chad was a highly respected firefighter, mentor, IAFF Local 2203 leader, and beloved family man whose loss is deeply felt across the North Metro family. He is survived by his wife, two daughters, two sisters, and his mother.

The District is working closely with Chad’s family to coordinate services and support. With the family’s permission, additional information will be shared in the coming days.

When firefighters respond to a house fire, putting the flames out is only part of the job.

There are numerous reasons our firefighters will reenter a structure after the fire has been extinguished, but this crew is completing salvage operations—using salvage covers to protect furniture and personal belongings from water, debris, and smoke damage.

Our firefighters also assist homeowners with removing requested sentimental or valuable items from the home after the fire is out.

These efforts help preserve the things that matter most during an incredibly difficult day. From family photos and keepsakes to important documents and heirlooms, we know some items can never truly be replaced.

And then, before leaving the scene, we ensure a restoration company is on site to secure the premises and further assist the family with the next steps.

Protecting lives is always the priority, but protecting memories and property matters too.

A few seconds of attention can prevent a lifetime of consequences.

At approximately 3:20 p.m. yesterday afternoon, crews from Westminster Fire and North Metro Fire responded to a multi-vehicle crash on Hwy 36 that required patient assessment and vehicle extrication. Firefighters worked quickly to stabilize the scene, assist patients and safely remove one individual from a vehicle. Two patients were transported to local hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries.

Crashes like this serve as an important reminder that distracted driving can change lives in an instant.

Whether it’s a text message, GPS adjustment, eating, or simply taking your eyes off the road for a few seconds, distractions significantly increase the risk of a serious collision.

Please help keep our roads safer by:

• Putting your phone away while driving
• Staying alert in heavy traffic and construction zones
• Leaving extra following distance
• Watching for sudden stops and changing road conditions

Let’s work together to keep the roads safe!
