FF Mike Altman of the Chicago Fire Department, assigned to Truck 47, was critically injured today while doing what he always does- putting others first. During a primary search at a structure fire, Mike fell through the floor into a room that was fully on fire. Mike is not only a dedicated firefight

⚠️ Extreme Cold - Safety Alert ⚠️

Dangerously cold temperatures are expected to impact the area over the next several days. These conditions can be life-threatening if proper precautions are not taken.

Please take the following steps to stay safe:
• Limit time outdoors. If you must go out, wear layered clothing, hats, gloves, and cover exposed skin.
• Check on elderly neighbors, family members, and anyone without reliable heat.
• Keep pets indoors and ensure livestock have adequate shelter and water.
• Use space heaters safely—keep them at least three feet from anything combustible and never leave them unattended.
• Never use ovens, grills, or generators indoors for heat due to carbon monoxide risk.

If you experience an emergency or see someone in distress due to the cold, call 911 immediately.

Please share this message to help keep our Broadview community safe!
