It was a busy week for the Frisco FD! Freezing temps, structure fires and the retirement of Inspector Adams after 48 years of public service! The Frisco FD responded to an apartment fire where the sprinklers had been turned off due to the freeze. They made a quick and fantastic stop and limited the fire damage to the apartment where it started.

A special survivor reunion took place on Wednesday, Sept 28th with the crews of E7, T6 and M6. In July 2021, a patient was found unresponsive in an attic suffering from heat exposure. After a challenging rescue, the patient was transported to Texas Health Plano and spent over eight days in the ICU. After a year of rehab, the patient and his family celebrated his recovery with the FFD crew members that helped that day.
Plano recognized FF/PM D Allen &FF/PM L Tippet for their quick actions in a recent medical incident. The actions of Frisco Med6 -C crew & the hospital staff allowed the patient to go home to her family in just a few days. An incredible job by all those involved!
