Fire EMS

Shards of glass and vehicle parts were strewn on the street and the sidewalk at the point of impact.

Seven units, three investigators, and department chief officers responded.

First responders began to clear the scene at roughly 6:20 p.m.

Two cats died in the fire.

Jason Speiser was appointed interim fire chief on Dec. 1 after Kenneth King resigned.

King was apparently not the only one within the department who sent inappropriate emails, and other Fire-EMS personnel are being investigated as well.

In October 2016, Kenneth King announced his retirement soon after apologizing for an email he called a joke about suppressing evidence in the Oct. 2015 Cole Creek Fire.

Casper Fire-EMS reminds everyone to take responsibility for preventing fires in and around their homes.

A fire that did significant damage to a home under-construction in Casper Sunday night remains under investigation.
