Kids are still being taught stop, drop, and roll. However there has been a warning for parents and teachers that some kids are actually confused by it.
It's officially Fire Prevention Week! It's the perfect time to replace smoke detector batteries, and carbon monoxide detector batteries too, and tour a Duluth Fire Department Station.
According to the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, July is the peak month for home fires in the United States and grilling plays a role in that, with gas grills playing a larger role than charcoal.
With these sub zero temperatures many people are using portable heaters to help keep their homes warm. They can work great, but they also can start fires.
Even though we had a pretty cold and wet April, it only takes a short run of clear skies and warmer weather to dry out dead grass, which can ignite and burn rapidly.
Imagine the irony when changing the batteries on your smoke detector could actually cause your house to burn down. Watch this video to figure out how it happens, and prevent it in your own home.
