Dear Member,

In this week's highlights, video captured the rescue efforts of responders when two buses crashed in New York, while the suspected arsonist responsible for a 5-alarm fire that injured seven firefighters and killed one civilian was apprehended.

And don't miss the gripping photo and story of two firefighters who bailed out of a second-floor window, one of our most popular posts on Facebook.

Top Comments of the Week

"Ok, where's the problem? The driver admitted that he did not see the fire chief until he threw his flashlight and started to yell at him. What was he supposed to do, stand there and wait to get hit?"
�Lea Fleming in response to Vt. fire chief pleads guilt after throwing flashlight at car

"I saw nothing wrong with the attempted rescue. They did not put this person in the situation in the first place. Since he refused to grab the disk, it seemed he was evading rescue just as he evaded police contact. We wish we could save them all, but it is not the reality of the job."
