The County of Los Angeles Fire Department’s Urban Search and Rescue team, known internationally as USA-2 has been activated by the U.S. Department of State to respond to Jamaica in wake of Hurricane Melissa. USA-2 is comprised of 34 members, 4 canines and 42,000 pounds of equipment. They are joining the Fairfax County Fire Department’s USAR team, USA-1, to provide search, rescue and recovery assistance. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all affected by the devastation left by Hurricane Melissa.

CBS's Ross Palumbo reports on LAPD's latest efforts to enforce fireworks laws. Fireworks are illegal for a reason -- they put lives, homes, and first responders at risk. This New Year’s Eve, we urge everyone to celebrate safely -- without fireworks. #lafd #happynewyear #lapd #dronetechnology #losangeles #safecelebrations | Los Angeles Fire Department
