Rescue Engine extricated one on the Inner Loop - A rainy night in Landover brought a slew of accidents for RE33, including a cut job on the Capital Beltway.

Sunday morning, #RescueEngine33 was dispatched to Ritchie Rd. and Ashwood Dr. for an accident with entrapment. On arrival, there were two patients trapped in the same vehicle. The crew performed stabilization and a complete sidewall removal, freeing the trapped victims.

The Kentland Volunteer Fire Department would like to recognize members Matt Hall, Dan Baran and Hayden Campbell on receiving their life membership Tuesday night. Congratulations on this accomplishment and for your continued service to Kentland.

The Volunteer tradition is strong in Prince George’s County. We would like to thank the Berwyn Heights Volunteer Fire Dept and Rescue Squad, Inc. for the Christmas tree for the firehouse. Be sure to stop by Berwyn Heights Company 14 for your Christmas needs.

It's not all fires, cut jobs, and training on our news feed - sometimes we get to share some happy milestones from our extended family, too. Congratulations to Kate, sister of our House Lieutenant, on completing chemo! Your resilience in the face of adversity has been remarkable.

We would like to thank Charley’s Crane Services for setting up several cars in preparation for this afternoon’s multi squad drill at the firehouse. We have developed a strong working relationship with them over the past several years & we greatly appreciate the continued support.

Shirts are back in stock. Pick one up on the Kentland Merchandise Store to get your orders in. https://t.co/XqgRRFOiDp
