From Oak Forest firefighters union local 3039 Facebook:
Well, we have good news and bad news! Bad news first…we currently do NOT have any Oak Forest fire apparatus “in-service”.Our neighbors to the west, Village of Tinley Park Public Safety and Orland Fire Protection District, IL are each letting us use an engine to keep from a break in emergency services.The good news, we’re being told we have allocated funds and a thumbs up to purchase new fire apparatus! We are happy and hoping to move forward with that process as quickly as we can.

It is with heavy hearts that the Elk Grove Village Fire Department announces the passing of Lieutenant Mark Pytlewicz. Lt. Pytlewicz was a dedicated member of our department for 22 years and held many duties including company officer, technical rescue team, honor guard, and so much more.
To honor Lt. Pytlewicz, all fire stations will display bunting, and flags will be flown at half-staff.We ask that you keep his family, friends, and colleagues in your thoughts during this difficult time.
