PLEASE HELP!!! We were just pulling an ambulance out of Caddo Fire District #4 Station 2 in the 6100 block of Colquitt Road when somebody driving a newer model white 4 door Ford F150 with black rims and a Louisiana Professional Firefighters plate with 5 digits went into oncoming traffic and almost crashed into me and my partner. If you know anyone that matches this description please contact me.

I got to put in some work today! Love being a paramedic but this will get your heart pumping! The Elkhart Brass Smooth bore attached to the Key Hose made for a 30 second stop. We just trained on this 2 weeks ago and seeing it in action is validation on all the training the guys at Caddo Fire District #4 have been putting in. TRAINING WORKS!

Incredible photos from this first in fire with Engine-8 of the Shreveport Fire Department last night. Although the structure was a complete loss they did an excellent job protecting exposures and getting it done quickly.

Ever wondered what fireman do when the chores are done and Chief has left for the day….

We lost a good friend and brother firefighter today. Wynn Hutto was an inspiration to all of us. He fought many battles the last several years and somehow kept a smile on his face. Please keep Mandy Campbell Hutto and her family in your prayers.

They sure gave that gate some hell! Not something you’d expect when trying to get to a fire but they adapted and overcame with a swift spartan kick to the chest!

A little throwback to last year when Captain Shawn Sanders put it all on the line to save a grandmother! Caddo Parish Fire District Number Four is something I’m proud to be a part of! Make sure you keep these guys in your thoughts this weekend as you’re home with your families during Christmas. They will be on duty and ready to serve if needed!

Well glad to say she’s doing well and on the path to recovery! Not your typical grab but we saved someone’s loved one and that’s all that matters.

We had a visitor 🐍 🐍 come by the sssssstation last night! We don’t have a name yet but this is the 6ft 30lb snake the CPT Freddie Martin(Not Shown) and FF/Paramedic John Phelan pulled from our most recent working house fire. Also featured in the photo is FF/Paramedic/Acting Captain Joel McVay and FF/Paramedic Cara Payne who were both instrumental in extinguishing the home making it possible for this animal to be rescued. Thank you Steven Kennedy with Snaketuary for stepping up to rehab this beautiful animal!

Pulled a 6ft Albino Boa Constrictor from a house fire today. Yesterday was a peacock in a neighborhood hit by a tornado. Huge shoutout to Snaketuary for coming out and rescuing this beauty after we pulled it from the home.

Words can’t even describe what I saw tonight. A massive tornado came down and ripped through one of our southern neighborhoods and completely changed the path of so many lives. In an instant a community was leveled. Hold your little ones close tonight because in the blink of an eye it could all be gone. Prayers for the amazing group of first responders that showed up tonight to help those affected by this disaster as they continue to sift through the debris and the emotions they will carry for weeks to come.

Amazing partners right here. I got to witness the start of tbis search first hand. Scout was READY to go!! So sorry Rick Morrow

24 hours after Scout found Mr. Willie, who was missing for 12 hours, we noticed Scout wasn’t feeling good. The next morning he was taken to the Veterinarian and after waiting most of the day for a word, the word came. A handler’s worst news, Scout has Cancer. He has a tumor that has his liver and spleen, it’s in his lungs and his hemoglobin was half what it should’ve been. The Dr. said maybe a few weeks. After talking to the Dr and weighing all the options and talking to his breeder, it’s been decided that we will make him comfortable as long as possible and let him enjoy this time spoiled as possible. Knowing now how sick he was the night of the search, he NEVER gave up and NEVER stopped working. I thank you in advance for your thoughts and prayers. Now to let him play with his duck just for being a “good boy”.

When the rookie doesn’t understand the 45,000lb fire truck doesn’t drive like his Silverado….

Not exactly the glamour spot on the truck but you sure as hell can make or break your crew with a couple of wrong pulls of these levers.
