AURORA, Colo. — Aurora fire crews came to the rescue in the early hours of Friday morning after two ambulances became stuck in the heavy, wet snow that fell around the state on Thursday.

Using a Brush 13 Type 3 4x4 wildland engine — typically used for wildland fires — crews with Aurora Fire arrived at 2 a.m. and within 15 minutes, had freed both of the ambulances from the snow. The crews in the ambulances quickly resumed operations and the patient, who was not impacted by the delay, was brought to the hospital.

“Our team is proud to serve our community in any circumstance," said AFR Fire Chief Alec Oughton."Using our resources to pivot from fires to snowstorms speaks volumes about the skills of our firefighters. We are dedicated to doing whatever it takes to provide exceptional care, protection and support for our community.”

As of Friday around 10:30 a.m., Aurora's official snowfall total was 17 inches. Snowplow drivers are continuing to remove snow from roads on Friday, and are addressing Priority 3 Green Routes, which include neighborhood streets and bus routes.
