Update Traffic Collision with Fire 11/01/2022 INC#1625

Update Traffic Collision with Fire; INC#1625; 09:42PM; 23120 W Mulholland Dr; https://bit.ly/3h45V8k; #WoodlandHills; Firefighters quickly extinguished the fires in both vehicles, but, sadly, the two occupants in one vehicle were beyond medical help upon first responders' arrival (less than 5 minutes after time of alarm). The driver of the second vehicle had escaped (no FD extrication needs) and was evaluated by firefighter/paramedics on scene. The patient is in good condition, but is being taken to the hospital as a precaution due to the amount of force of the collision. LAPD Inc #4443. Nothing further. ; FS 105; Batt 17; Valley Bureau; Council District 3; BC17 E105 E106 E305 E84 EM14 EM17 HR3 RA105 RA106 T105 UR88; CH8; 17; Nicholas Prange

Update Hazardous Materials Investigation 10/31/2022 INC#0303

Update Hazardous Materials Investigation; INC#0303; 08:45AM; LAX Terminal 8 Baggage Area; https://bit.ly/3TU0Td6; Westchester; The reported release of Carbon Dioxide took place in a utility room within the airport, more than 200' from the Terminal 8 Baggage Area. Though NO passengers/travelers were directly affected by the release, in the interest of safety, airport officials moved as many as 100 persons from Terminal 8 to Terminal 7 in a calm and orderly manner. The four persons who took suddenly ill (3 adult males and 1 adult female) were all workers in or near that (unknown size) utility room, when a popping sound was heard, and the apparent release of Carbon Dioxide vapor took place. Three of the four workers (2 males, 1 female) have been treated at scene for minor complaints. The fourth worker, described as a male in his 50's, was found pulseless and non-breathing inside the utility room. He was provided prompt CPR and advanced life support by LAFD Paramedics, with continuing advanced medical care during transport to an area hospital. His condition was upgraded from grave to critical on hospital arrival. LAFD Hazardous Materials experts have closely examined the area with sophisticated instruments, and discovered only trace residue of Carbon Dioxide remaining within the utility room. No escalating or off-site hazard was identified. LAFD responders are utilizing portable fans to further ventilate the immediate area to outside air.
