We express our deepest condolences to our Salt Lake City Fire family as they mourn the passing of one of their own. Your loss is our loss. Fire is family.
Firefighter Kade Martin finished his cancer fight on November 12, 2025. Peace be with those left behind.
🔥House Fire🔥
At approximately 1:02am this morning, UFA crews, along with @westvalleycityfire & @westjordanfire responded to a reported house fire in Magna City. Crews arrived on scene to find smoke showing from the first floor. Firefighters initiated an offensive interior attack and quickly knocked the fire down, preventing further damage to the rest of the home. One patient was assessed for possible smoke inhalation. No other injuries reported. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
Thank you to all of the units on scene for their quick response and effective knockdown of the fire.

We’re pretty good at showing you what not to do, and it’s only because we want people to see how fast things can go bad. Turkey fryers get a lot of attention this time of year, but they’re only one of the risks we see around Thanksgiving.
While you’re cooking your holiday dishes, watch out for the things that cause the most trouble in real kitchens:
• Walking away from the stove
• Grease getting too hot
• Clutter near burners
• Kids or pets running through the workspace
Keep your kitchen clear, stay close to what you’re cooking, and have a safe holiday season.

To help protect first responders, tow truck drivers and others on the road shoulder, it’s the law to slow down and move over. @utahdps

Sources?
-automobiles
-small engines
-lanterns
-stoves
-grills
-furnaces
-generators
Symptoms can include headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, weakness.
If experiencing these symptoms, leave the space into fresh air and call 911.
Prevention tips!
-Service your appliances frequently by certified technicians
-Install CO monitors on each level of your home.
-Do not use fuel burning devices inside
-Do not run a vehicle for extended periods of time in garage
-Inspect exhaust stacks and air intakes to be clear of snow or debris
-Ensure fireplace is vented
Be safe out there everyone!
