Great Bend Fire/EMS
Firefighters made six ambulance runs Friday, two Saturday and six Sunday.
At 6:06 a.m. Saturday, units responded to 121 SE 40 Road for an electrical pole on fire. The homeowner said the electricity went out so he went outside and found a telephone pole with the top broken off and sitting on top of a transformer. The pole had embers but the fire was confined to the pole. The electric company was contacted.
At 3:16 p.m. Sunday, units were paged to 2210 25th for a possible fire in the garage. There was no fire, but they did see an outside electrical outlet with blacking around it on the siding. The electricity was shut off from the breaker box until the power company arrived. The homeowner had been working on the wiring earlier in the day and it was determined a short had occurred.
At 3:13 a.m. Monday, units responded to 356 North U.S. 281 for natural gas leak. They found a relief valve leaking. Gas was shut off until the gas company arrived to repair the meter.
