Our firefighter who was injured during the Memorial Day structure fire in Teton Pines has been released from the hospital!

Charlie Crotteau was working to access fire burning in the roof when he fell approximately 20 feet from the platform of a ladder truck. A Rapid Intervention Crew (RIC), along with other firefighters who saw the fall, immediately reached Charlie and began providing aid. He was transported by ambulance to St. John's Health and underwent surgery for fractures in his leg.

Charlie has been a volunteer firefighter at Station 1 in downtown Jackson since 2023.
