More on the New home for South Elgin engine from Danny Nelms:
Engine that formally belonged to the South Elgin Fire Department and has spent the last several years in Pennsylvania was was listed for sale several weeks ago. In light of the devastation from the tornado in Mayfield/Graves County Kentucky, Penn Forest Volunteer Fire Company #2 decided to donate the rig to the Mayfield/Graves County Fire and Rescue Squad whose firehouse was destroyed along with several pieces of apparatus.The Seagrave engine was loaded on a flatbed trailer and departed for Kentucky in the late evening hours of December 16th.

Excerpts from wandtv.com:
South Elgin Fire Protection District firefighters rescued a dog that escaped through a window onto a home’s roof.
Crews say the homeowners who live in a duplex weren’t home when the dog made its move. They say the animal broke through a window screen on the building’s second floor, then made its way over to the neighbor’s side of the roof.
The dog wasn’t able to get back to the window it came out of because the roof was steep. They safely managed to get it down using a ladder.
