Huge shoutout to the crew at Fire Station 23 for their incredible work saving a man’s life after he suffered a gunshot wound. When seconds counted, these medics didn’t hesitate: they quickly administered a tourniquet and transfused 2 pints of blood to keep him alive.

Even after he went into cardiac arrest, the crew kept fighting, stabilizing him enough to make the critical transport to the hospital. Thanks to their fast action and seamless transfer of care, the patient went straight into the OR and—against the odds—was able to walk out of the hospital completely neurologically intact.
Great job, y’all!!

Congratulations to FRO Jonathan Kirby and Probationary FRO Jared Newman for being awarded the Fireground Excellence Award for saving the lives of 4 civilians during a fire at multi-story apartment building under extremely dangerous conditions.

Upon arrival Kirby and Newman deployed ground ladders to access a second story balcony where a civilian was trapped. Firefighters were able to bring the man to safety.

Kirby and Newman then repositioned their ladder to assist occupants who were attempting to escape a third-story window. Kirby and Newman quickly secured and safely lowered a victim who was trying to escape hanging by a bedsheet. Facing rapidly deteriorating conditions, both members then acted quickly to rescue 2 additional victims from the third story window.

*Note* Newman was still a probationary officer when this took place!

A Unit Citation was awarded to EN52, EN29, EN28, TR37, TR57, BC04, BC10, RE28 for their coordinated actions and exceptional work in preventing the loss of life under extreme fire conditions.

Great work, bubbas!!

Congratulations to Rescue 03, Engine 18, and 780 who were presented with a Life Saving Award for saving the life of a 53 year-old woman who was in cardiac arrest. Her family members reported she pointed to her chest before passing out. They began CPR until paramedics arrived just minutes later. The crew worked perfectly tandem to manage her airway, give her one shock, and medication. They got a pulse back by the time they arrived at the hospital. She was able to walk out of the hospital neurologically intact!

Great job, y’all!

Today was the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the brand new Dallas Fire Station 21 and Airport Operations Building at Dallas Love Field Airport . The state-of-the-art facility is the second-largest Airport Rescue Firefighting station in Texas and fourth largest in the U.S. It is home to the World’s First All-Electric Airport Rescue Firefighting vehicle, the ePanther, which we unveiled in April.

The new building features:
🚒 An immersive, on-site Aircraft Emergency Simulator that prepares firefighters, airport partners, and emergency management teams for any aircraft incident
🚒Station 21 is fully integrated for electrified emergency response units including the Panther Electric, xCharge Super Charger, and a complete backup generator for uninterrupted operations.
🚒An integrated, on-site maintenance facility allows us to service vehicles faster, boost efficiency, and ensure fleet readiness.

👏👏👏

Congratulations to Station 25 for their Life Saving Award! A 62 year-old woman went into cardiac arrest at a gas station in their district on May 6, 2026. Bystanders started CPR and this crew took over when they arrived. Paramedics continued CPR, performed one shock, and were able achieve return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC).

She was transported to the hospital and was able to walk out neurologically intact! It’s not often our paramedics get an update on the outcome of a patient. They were happy to hear their work helped this woman survive.

Excellent work 25’s!
