Yesterday at approx 3:11pm, SACFD Truck 23 was dispatched to the area of 50th Avenue & Oneida Street for a reported garbage truck fire.

Upon arrival, crews encountered a fully involved CNG-powered refuse truck, with fire spreading to three additional semi-trucks and threatening a nearby box truck.

Truck 23 crews immediately initiated a fire attack and requested two additional engine companies to assist with fire suppression operations.

Through a coordinated response and aggressive fire attack, crews worked to contain the fire and prevent further spread to additional vehicles and surrounding property. The cause is under investigation.

A Life Saved Through Immediate Action ❤️

Last week, members from South Adams County Fire and Platte Valley Ambulance were honored with a life-saving award during our District board meeting.

On July 9, 2026, Truck 23, Ambulance 23, EMS 23, and Safety 21 responded to the 6200 block of Monaco Street for a report of a person down in a yard.

Upon arrival, crews found a 70-year-old male in cardiac arrest. SACFD and PVA crews immediately began resuscitation efforts, working together to provide critical care and lifesaving interventions. Following the initiation of resuscitative measures, the patient regained a pulse and was transported emergently to a local hospital for continued care.

We are incredibly grateful to share that the patient has since made a full recovery. ❤️

This outcome is a powerful reminder of the importance of rapid emergency response, immediate CPR, and strong partnerships between first responders and our community.

We’re proud of the dedication and teamwork displayed by everyone involved in this lifesaving response. Great work, SACFD and PVA! 🚒🚑❤️
