Fawn Fire Engine Rollover 2018

At approximately 2325 hours on July 8, 2018, a non-federal cooperator agency’s Type VI engine returning from a firing operation on the Fawn Fire, departed the dirt road it was traveling on, rolled down an embankment, and came to rest upright in a drainage. There was limited visibility due to dusty road conditions and darkness. The task force leader and another engine made contact with the crew from the rolled engine. All three firefighters exited the rolled engine with non-life threatening injuries. They were later transported by ambulance from ICP to a local hospital.
