Fire/EMS activity summary

Notes / caveats:

  • Transcriptions contained numerous garbled names, CAD numbers, and spelling errors; above consolidates likely locations, incident types, times (approximate), and outcomes based on context. Routine administrative traffic, radio checks, and training/status calls are omitted. If you want a timeline or per‑unit activity log (fields/command units), I can produce a sorted Chronology or filter by area (Clifton, Palisade, Fruita, Loma, Orchard Mesa).
