From Village of Villa Park, Illinois, Government on Facebook:

On Monday, the Village of Villa Park celebrated our inaugural push-in ceremony for our newest fire engine. This fire service tradition dates back to the 1800’s when crews returned from calls on horse-drawn equipment and firefighters had to remove the horses and push the equipment back into the bay. Engine 81 is a 2023 Impel Fire Engine and will replace the 26 year old Emergency One Engine 80. Give us a shout if you spot Engine 81 around town!

thanks Martin

Fatal fire in Villa Park, 12-15-18

Excerpts from the DailyHerald.com;

Villa Park police officers were first to respond to a fire at a single-family home in the 300 block of North Lincoln Avenue at 6:25 a.m. Saturday after neighbors said the elderly man who lived in the house was seen running up and down the block crying for help.

Villa Park Deputy Police Chief William Lyons said the call initially came in as a request for assistance, but soon afterward neighbors alerted 911 that a fire had broken out at the home. That’s why police were first on the scene. The first arriving officers tried to make entry in the back of the house, but were overcome by smoke. They were treated and released from an area hospital for smoke inhalation.

A woman was found dead inside. The man who lived in the house suffered minor injuries and was treated at an area hospital. His condition is unknown, but the injuries are not considered life threatening.

Villa Park Fire Department news

Excerpts from the DailyHerald.com:

Brandon Santiago, a former Villa Park firefighter has filed a federal lawsuit against the village alleging violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act. The suit was filed on behalf of himself and other similarly situated firefighters in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. Santiago claims the village failed to include holiday pay and sick leave buyback pay in his regular rate of pay. He also claims the village did not include longevity pay and acting out-of-rank pay in other firefighters’ regular rate of pay, which led him and others to not receive the full benefit of their time and one-half overtime rate. He is seeking the last three years of owed back wages, liquidated damages, and attorney fees for himself and similarly situated firefighters who also may deserve damages.
