Drexel Heights Fire District and the Tohono O’odham Fire Department units responded to an apartment fire in the 6400 Block of South Camino De La Tierra. 911 calls came in around 5:15 PM reporting smoke coming from the patio area of an apartment, with smoke detectors sounding. Upon arrival, crews found an apartment charged with smoke and a bathroom that was on fire. No residents were home at the time. Crews were able to bring the fire under control within seven minutes. A family of four was displaced due to smoke damage. The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Congratulations to Communications Specialist Samantha Thornbloom!

Last week, Samantha successfully graduated from the Pima Community College EMT Program. She is now, State and Nationally Certified and received Valedictorian honors.

Having this level of medical training and knowledge is an invaluable asset for our telecommunicators and the communities we serve.

Great job, Samantha!
We are proud of you!

Today is dedicated to honoring the brave men and women who gave their lives while serving in the U.S. military. It's a time to pause, reflect, and remember the ultimate sacrifice made for our freedom.

To all who have served and continue to serve, thank you.
